Minitrack #2 *Organizational Transformation by Scaling and Extending the Use of Agile Methods* Track *Organisational Transformation & Information Systems (SIGOSRA)*

Description: Many of today’s organizations see agility as a core capability of the digital enterprise. While following agile values, principles and methods in software development projects is by now well established, organisations across all industries increasingly try to harness Agile’s potential in other areas.

These areas include (1) scaling agile development to larger settings involving multiple teams and/or projects, (2) managing distributed organizational setups for development, (3) extending the agile values, principles and methods to other functions and departments in the enterprise beyond software development and IT, and (4) establishing inter-organizational setups for agility that include customers, partners or suppliers. These extensions lead to intensive organizational change activities with a high impact on potentially all levels of the organization: individual, team, management and governance.

For this minitrack, we seek to attract research contributions that extend existing research by focusing on socio-technical, organizational, managerial and/ or individual challenges of scaling and extending the application of agile values, principles and methods beyond their original scope.

We welcome conceptual, empirical, and design-oriented contributions for this mini-track. Papers must be submitted through the conference website: https://amcis2019.aisconferences.org/ https://amcis2019.aisconferences.org/

You can find the paper submission guidelines and template here: https://amcis2019.aisconferences.org/submissions/types-of-submissions/
