“…Kivinen and Lammintakanen (2013), for example, conducted a case study on the use of a management IS in the healthcare environment. The authors outline two main requirements for the system use: 1) a strategy for information management to ensure that the IS is considered as a tool in strategic information management from the very beginning and 2) an information culture (i.e., a culture that recognizes the value and utility of information for operational and strategic success) to ensure that the medical staff share all relevant information.…”

“…Summary V models: while the introduced papers stem from research of diverse contextual backgrounds, we observed two dominant topics in the V model papers: 1) the importance of an information-sharing culture for successful IS integration and IS use (Katz & Townsend, 2000;Kimaro & Nhampossa, 2005;Kivinen & Lammintakanen, 2013;Mignon & Janicot, 2009) and 2) the relevance of cultural and strategic compatibilities between two or more entities for successful IS development and IS integration (Arnott et al, 2007;Kimaro & Nhampossa, 2005;Rajaguru & Matanda, 2011;Rajaguru & Matanda, 2013;Wainwright & Waring, 2004).…”

“…For example, Katz and Townsend (2000) examine differences in information-sharing behavior between countries, Kivinen and Lammintakanen (2013) and Kimaro and Nhampossa (2005) address information-sharing culture in hospitals, and Mignon and Janicot (2009) examine information-sharing culture in audit and consultancy firms.…”

“…Normative culture approaches dominate in the V models (Kivinen & Lammintakanen, 2013;Mignon & Janicot, 2009;Rajaguru & Matanda, 2011;Rajaguru & Matanda, 2013;Wainwright & Waring, 2004). This means that these papers report on a to-be culture (e.g., an ideal information sharing culture) that organizations should achieve.…”

“…This means that these papers report on a to-be culture (e.g., an ideal information sharing culture) that organizations should achieve. If the users adopt this culture as part of their cultural identity, then the culture functions as an enabler of IS success (Kivinen & Lammintakanen, 2013). Only three contributions take a descriptive culture approach and depict the status quo of a given as-is culture (Arnott et al, 2007;Katz & Townsend, 2000;Kimaro & Nhampossa, 2005), which typically represents a barrier to IS success.…”

Abstract:Culture is an important topic in strategic information systems (IS) research, particularly because information technology (IT) projects are often accompanied by cultural challenges. While culture has been widely analyzed in this discipline, there is a lack of research that systematically examines the role of culture in strategic IS research. With a structured literature review, we investigate the relation patterns between culture, strategy, and IS-related concepts in terms of dependent, moderating, and independent variables and the research approach in terms of descriptive, normative, and prescriptive. Four different patterns emerge, each one closely related to specific forms of theorizing and corresponding research designs. Research streams focusing on descriptive explanations of culture's role are rather exhausted. IS research that builds on a normative understanding of culture exists in selected areas, while theorizing on the prescriptive management of culture has been largely neglected despite the relevance of cultural challenges in IS projects. We derive areas for future research and present two themes that emerged in our study to demonstrate how descriptive and normative approaches can provide a foundation for research on the prescriptive management of culture in strategic IS projects: the management of cultural clashes and the management of cultural identity.

Analysis of Barriers to the Deployment of Health Information Systems: a Stakeholder Perspective

et al. 2018

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

This paper argues that the cross-analysis of barriers with stakeholders provides a richer picture than analyzing the barriers on their own, as most of the literature in this area does. To test this hypothesis, we used the data from 33 interviews across 19 different types of stakeholders that were involved in a telemedicine system for the Chronically-ill Patient. Our findings show encouraging results. For instance, it was found that the group of stakeholders who are directly related to the governance and policy-making identified most of the barriers. This finding may imply that this group is more aware of the challenges when implementing HIS, or it may suggest that this group poses more resistance due to the current economic and Organizational models in health care. It was also found that some barriers are cited by all stakeholders whereas others not, suggesting that some barriers may be more relevant than others.
