Inter-Organizational IT Governance Research

Abstract

The current operational environment for organizations is changing, which has effects on IT functions and IT activities. Various forms of networks, collaborations, and alliances are operational models, which organizations are using to an increasing extent. This reality has brought with it a need for improved IT governance (ITG). ITG research for inter-organizational arrangements will be needed. In the research, the target is to identify the current state of the inter-organizational ITG research among the information systems (IS) domain. The literature review covers academic articles and conference proceedings during this millennium. The findings of the current literature review reveal that interest towards ITG research is still quite limited. The future view of inter-organizational ITG research is quite clear: more research will be needed in the inter-organizational area, which is the current playground for several organizations today.

Ethical governance model for the data economy ecosystems

“…While research about data ecosystems has gained popularity in recent years (Gelhaar et al , 2021; Rantanen et al , 2019), it is still in its early stages with clear gaps to be filled (Oliveira et al , 2019). In some fields, governance is an extensively researched area (Oliveira et al , 2019; Helin, 2019). Likewise, opposing views on how ecosystems emerge and what is the theory of it exist (Gelhaarand and Otto, 2020; Shipilov and Gawer, 2020).…”
