The Role Of Dynamic Capabilities In Creating Business Value From Is Assets, Rajeev Sharma, Graeme Shanks

Professor Rajeev Sharma

This paper draws on and extends the emerging literature on dynamic capabilities to understand and explain the role ofinformation systems (IS) assets in creating business value. Our analysis identifies the critical roles of managerial actions andthe organizational context in identifying, resourcing and implementing IS-enabled competitive actions in delivering businessvalue. This paper extends earlier treatments of the relationship between IS assets and organizational strategy and performanceby explicitly accounting for the roles of human agency and context, which have not been adequately addressed in priorliterature. A research model for future research is proposed.

Investigating The Effect Of Participation-Limiting Structures On Outcomes Of E-Democracy Systems (Research In Progress), Rajeev Sharma

Professor Rajeev Sharma

Modern information systems provide a technical foundation for greater participation of citizens in the agenda-setting and decision-making processes of government. Information systems researchers and designers will need to address a number of issues to design IS applications for the effective functioning of evolving forms of democracy. This paper identifies a research agenda at the intersection of information systems research, economics and political science research and avenues for information systems researchers to contribute to the research agenda.
