In this research we try to build a conceptual framework to describe the relationship between empowerment and information sharing in order to provide some suggestions to business administration. The research method primarily relies on a systems concept, with a supporting case illustration. After reasoning from literature reviewed, we build an information-sharing model, and then add in the interaction of empowerment, and finally integrate these components to form a conceptual framework and propose three specific research propositions. The conclusions drawn from the research are that an organization provides accurate information through sharing and uses empowerment shorten the decision-making process. These interactions enable organizations to increase and quicken response ability to meet the needs of customers and the market.
