Organizational dynamics of technology-based innovation: Diversifying the information systems research agenda

Abstract

This keynote address takes up the conference theme and argues for greater diversification and innovation - in method and topic - in Information Systems research and curricula design. Basing my arguments on my own - and others' - recent critiques of calls for a narrowing of our focus on the information technology artefact and IS design, I will highlight the expanding boundary of the field of Information Systems and what this means for the IS academy in terms of innovation and diversification in our research and teaching. © 2007 International Federation for Information Processing.
