CALL FOR PAPERS
***AMCIS 2020: Issues in the IT Profession ***
August 12-16, 2020, Salt Lake City, UT, USA
Paper submission deadline: February 28, 2020
***Mini-track Description***
Though articles on issues in the IT profession are common in both
the practitioner press and the technology vendor community, much
less attention has been devoted to the topic from an academic
perspective. Managing IT requires leaders to understand the
interplay between managerial decisions and information
technologies and systems. Research regarding issues in the IT
profession examines the business impacts relating to the decisions
that IS leaders must make regarding the people, processes, data
and technology that are make up information systems. Research
areas related to issues of the IT profession are informed by the
results of the Society of Information Management (SIM) annual
survey of IS leadership priorities. The mini-track seeks to
explore the various dimensions, theoretical bases, and
perspectives on issues in the IT profession and to advance the
state of scholarship on the issue. Authors are encouraged to
submit both conceptual and empirical papers that employ a variety
of quantitative and qualitative methodologies.
Possible Topics includes but are not limited to:
Issues of specific interest to IT practitioners
* Managerial implications of process and technology decisions
* IS Organizational impacts of technology provisioning practices
* Strategic positioning within the organization
Research linked to SIM survey priorities
* Examination of key issues of IT leaders from vendor neutral

* Evaluation of the business impacts of IT decisions
* IT strategy development
Research and practice papers and contributor

All conference submissions will be double-blind, peer reviewed,
and must be submitted using the online submission system. For
