Our objective of the workshops and special issue is to examine the strategic business opportunities and management challenges associated with managing a diverse and evolving digital workforce. MIS Quarterly Executive bridges practice and research and is sponsored by the Society for Information Management and the Association for Information Systems. We are looking for submissions based on case and/or field studies that provide rich illustrations, frameworks, or lessons to guide management in successful strategies for managing this increasingly diverse, digital workforce. We welcome submissions based on both primary and secondary sources. This Special Issue of MIS Quarterly Executive (and the journal in general) seeks both original research and rigorous research published in traditional venues that have practical lessons learned for management.
Digital workforce topics may include all aspects of digital workforce management, including recruiting, developing, retaining, motivating, or compensating. It may include, but is not limited to: • Workforce diversity, including multi-cultural and multi-generational strategies • New digital talent metrics and talent analytics • Remote workers and the virtual workforce, including crowdsourcing and managing virtual “crowd workers” • Offshoring and shifting skill composition and relationships with a global workforce • Work displacement, destruction, and creation • How firms are flexing to manage an aging workforce and skill drain • Skills (re)training, new work routines and human capital development opportunities
