Abstract: Taking advantage of big data opportunities is challenging for traditional organizations.In this article, we take a panoptic view of big data -obtaining information from many sources and making it visible to all organizational levels.We suggest that big data requires the transformation from command and control hierarchies to post-bureaucratic organizational structures wherein employees at all levels can be empowered while simultaneously being controlled.We derive propositions that show how to best exploit big data technologies in organizations.
