| Summary: | Management of religious organisations has developed to the point where technology systems are highly complicated and managerial concerns are ubiquitous. Religious organisations need to consider the supporting roles that modern technology, notably computers, plays for them. Since religious organisations continue to employ various technologies in their everyday operations worldwide, it is necessary to consider how they use them for sustainable development. In this article, we assess the use of computerised systems by religious organisations in Nigeria and the effect these systems had on their operational management approaches and services. Representatives from fifteen different religious organisations were chosen for the study in the Nigerian cities of Lagos, Asaba, Kaduna, and Lokoja. The research uses a phenomenological approach, and the results show that religious organisations must use computers in their management and social work to be more productive, keep better records, and promote sustainable prosperity. |
