The advance equipments, new technology, good marketing strategic, excellent customer services and many other elements can be the factors to build up for the advantages. However, human resource is the most important assets of an enterprise and its success or failure depends on their qualifications and performance.the employees are the repository of knowledge, skills and abilities that can t be imitated by the competitors. Technologies, products and processes are easily imitated by the competitors; however, at the end of the day, employees are the most strategic resource of the company (Ugboro and Obeng, 000). A new way of management is employee empowerment or participative management Involving the people responsible for the work processes-the people who know the processes best is where quality starts.

2 3196 Fariz Taheri Kia and Tahereh Barzegar work only for financial return. If they are incapable to be an integral part of the organization, this may be true. Allowing employees to have independence and feedback within the organization is what makes the empowerment process successful (Daft, 001). Employee empowerment does not mean that management abandon from its responsibility of performance or for leading the organization. Rather, in an employee empowered organization, management s responsibility comes to create and foster an environment in which it is apparent that employee input is desired and cultivated. The management must trust and communicate with employees (Beth, 01). When employees are empowered, their confidence degree and self-reliance will increase. This extra confidence is a good thing because it creates job satisfaction and high levels of productivity. However, in some cases, confidence levels can be taken too far and end up crossing the line into arrogance. Arrogant employees are difficult to deal with, don t take direction well and can become insubordinate. Working in this type of work environment takes its toll on employees and they once again become dissatisfied with their job and productivity levels decrease (Yukl and Wendi, 006). LITERATURE REVIEW Empowerment has become an important issue within Contemporary organizations. There is real supports and encouragement to give the freedom to get a job done and the authority to achieve organizational goals. Recently, the usefulness of empowerment has started to become recognized in the different environment of Project Management (Williams, 1997). Rutland discusses its importance both between companies, leading towards an increase in structures such as partnering (which implies a level of trust between the companies), and, more relevantly to this paper, for individuals within a firm: he discusses the importance of employee motivation as a differentiating factor between companies (Rutland, 1994). Researcher can summarize Empowerment at the following points Empowerment encompass on enlargement of an employee s job duties by giving them the Independence and authority of decision making about their own job without approval of his immediate supervisor. Empowerment is the level of responsibility and authority given to an employee. By empowerment, the employees are motivated and enthusiast to utilize their skills, abilities and creativity by accepting accountability for their work. Empowerment occurs when employees are well trained, provided with all the appropriate and relevant information and the best possible tools, fully involved in key decisions, and are fairly rewarded.
3 Information Technology Utilization in Employees Empowerment Empowerment involve managers and employees working together to create specific goals and expectations within agreed-upon boundaries (Wiess, 00). Empowerment is the translation of the word empowerment, which is derived from the word empower containing two senses: (i) to give power to (give power, transferring power or delegate authority to other parties). (ii) to give the ability to, enable (attempt to provide the ability) (Oxford English Dictionary). Implicitly, the meaning stated that the concept of empowerment was born as antithetical to the model development and industrial models that are less in favor of the majority of the people (Purnama, 014). In empowerment process there will be advantages and disadvantages. David (013) mentioned empowered employees have an increased sense of ownership, thus create happier employees that tend to be more proactive and willing to embrace change. The group of employees felt in control of their destinies and more eager about their roles and passionate about success, which is all good for the company performance. Emmanuel (013) stated that empowerment plays significant role in employees satisfaction thus promoting performance in organizations. Another benefit of empowerment, Lashon (013) emphasized employers or leaders using the minds of their employees, this able to help them to meet projected goals and objectives a lot faster because more people working toward them. Ability delegation of certain responsibilities to employees will allow leader more time to focus on the areas needed more attention (Koontz, 1993). Emmanuel (013) in his research stated many famous enterprises, such as US Air and Federal Express, applied employee empowerment to improve customer satisfaction. Also their results obviously shown the effects of fully empowered employees produce more customer satisfaction. Similarly, agreed on both positive and negative results aspects especially for service organizations employees whom being empowered. Ameerah (013) shared that empowered employees to make decisions can help company to save money, time and prevent employees potential disputes. Decentralizing the decision making process allowed employee more confidence to make minor decisions without consult the manager thus improve the performance of support and service to customers. David (013) mentioned that if those jobs are done with increased enthusiasm and attention will benefit clients. As clients love to communication with friendly and paying special attention employee, which the employee tend to take more personal approach to focusing on creative ways to solve problem for clients thus Improves customer retention and loyalty (Ketchen, 010). Employee empowerment established relationship between engagement and organization performance, factors behind is increased employee learning and training, less turnover, lower absenteeism, enhances
4 3198 Fariz Taheri Kia and Tahereh Barzegar motivation and less argument with change because employees are able to participate in decision making (Ameerah, 013). Efficiency and Effectiveness also free up managers on supervision, mentors and advisers, use of teams work can increase of annual productivity and reduce cost (Esra, 010) and also employee commitment and team spirit. Reduced Cost able to improve service delivery and cost savings. Empowering employees can also decrease some middle management positions which conserve labor costs (Hartlin and Ferell, 1996). Other than that, relief of Management Stress leave more responsibility to employees, management will have less worry about daily operations (Andrew, 010). Manager should freely delegated important tasks and decisions to employee and this enable the manager to focus less on operations and more on strategy and business planning (Fry, 003).

Also, the sampling strategy is simple randomsampling. Current study can be considered as a descriptive survey if to view from data collection aspect and as an applied research if to investigate the goals of the study. To collect the data library method (to refer to books, articles, libraries, etc...) and fieldworks (questionnaire) was being used. For gathering data, a questionnaire in two parts was designed with 54 questions with 5-point likert scale. To analyze the data SPSS 19 and Pearson and Regression tests along with Entropy technique were utilized. The management experts were being asked to evaluate the validity of questionnaires. For this mean, the questionnaires were given to some professors and experts in management, and after their modifications were being applied and they confirmed it, the questionnaires were given to the participants. To determine the questionnaires reliability, the Cronbach Alpha technique was applied. For this purpose, 30 people were chosen by random (from the statistical samples) and the questionnaires were given to them. The Cronbach Alpha values for all variables were calculated: Variables Table 1 The results of reliability Cronbach Alpha Professional development 0.93 Job opportunities 0.87 Increasing knowledge 0.96 Decision making engagement 0.71 Independency and freedom 0.73 Self -controlling 0.81 Performance quality 0.83 Questionnaire as a whole 0.9
