Call for Papers, Pre-ICIS 2011 Academic Workshop and MISQE Special Issue
SPONSORED BY: MIS Quarterly Executive and the Society of Information Management
TITLE: Enterprises and People on the Move: Managing Mobility for Business Value
Program Co-Chairs and MISQE Special Issue Editors: Dorothy Leidner, Baylor University, Senior Editor, MISQE Shan Pan, National University Singapore Juliana Sutanto, ETH-Zurich
Description:
The past decade has witnessed a remarkable increase in the use of mobile technologies and applications to gather and disseminate information to and from employees as well as customers. Technology advancements such as the smartphone, tablet computer, and cloud computing liberate employees from their physical constraints leading to flexible working space and time. While on one hand, an increase in employees’ mobility may lead to better productivity and customer service; on the other hand, it may generate new security and compliance challenges for their organizations. How to address the challenges of supporting employees’ mobility to eventually generate the desired business values is a pertinent and timely organizational issue.
In addition, these advances in mobility provide opportunities and challenges for organizations seeking new means of reaching potential and existing customers, of personalizing customer service and advertising, and of tracking customers’ use of various services as well as customers’ responses to advertisements. As an interface to customers, advanced mobile devices may increase customization but also threaten privacy. Organizationsmust strike a careful balance between reaching its customers and pushing them away with messages that may be construed as intrusive. Those that achieve this balance are positioned to offer newer, richer services and products tocustomers.
For this pre-ICIS 2011 workshop and for the MISQE special issue in 2012, we are seeking “research for practice” papers that address the value that organizations are creating through embracing mobility. We are interested both in papers that consider the challenges and solutions to managing an increasingly mobile workforce and papers that consider the challenges and solutions to managing the relationships with customers using mobile technologies. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
IT’s Influence on Mobility Benefits and Challenges of Consumerization of IT for Enterprises Advantages and Drawbacks of Consumerization of IT for Employees Managing the Road Warriors Mobile IT Management and Strategy Strategies for Coping with the Personal Mobile Devices of Employees Increasing Employees’ Productivity through Virtual Mobility Managing the Information in the Internet of Things Obtaining Business Values from Mobile Applications
