At the Crossroads between Digital Innovation and Digital
Transformation - Call for submission - Professional Development
Workshop (PDW) at ICIS 2019 - 16 December, 14:30 -18:00 in Munich,
Germany
Overview: This PDW (Professional Development Workshop) session
engages the workshop attendees to debate and get feedback on their
own research on topics at the crossroads between digital
innovation and transformation. In particular, the PDW is aimed at
examining the transformation processes and mechanisms involved in
digital innovation and shedding more light on what is unique about
the novel phenomenon of digital transformation - compared to IT
function-driven and enterprise systems-enabled organizational
transformations of the past - across multiple levels of analysis,
including individual, organization, and society. Studying the
interrelation between digital innovation and digital
transformation is pertinent, since successive waves of digital
innovation within an industry or at the level of an individual
firm and its ecosystem may lead up to fundamental transformation
of structures, roles and management (Tumbas et al. 2018), culture,
competencies and skills, and so forth, depending on the influence
of barriers such as inertia and resistance to change (Vial 2019).
New phenomena, such as the democratization of innovation processes
(Huang et al. 2017) and consumerization (Gregory et al. 2018), put
large established firms under significant pressure to transform
their legacy systems and organizational structures, and reinvent
their models and approaches to value creation and capture
(Bharadwaj et al. 2013; Sebastian et al. 2017). Thus, expanding
the research agenda on digital innovation to focus as well on
digital transformation has recently been identified as a key
concern for the information systems field (Hinings et al. 2018;
Vial 2019). To address this topic, this PDW is organized to
attract scholars with interest in exploring and debating the
interrelated domains of digital innovation and transformation.
Format:
The Professional Development Workshop will consist of two parts.
In the first part of the workshop, there will be three short
keynote presentations. I
· Ola Henfridsson will provide an introduction and overview over
research on digital innovation.

theoretical challenges in conducting research on digital
innovation and/or digital transformation.
The second part of the workshop will feature round-table
discussions. Up to four participants who are at a similar stage in
their research projects and have common research interests will
gather in small groups. Each group will be facilitated by a
