摘要：There are several theories available to describe how managers choose a medium for communication. However, current technology can affect not only how we communicate but also what we communicate.

The answer to this question requires a shift from current preoccupations with ...

摘要：Many previous papers have lamented the fact that the findings of past GSS research have been inconsistent.

The second is the appropriation support the group receives in the form of traini...

摘要：We argue that because of important epistemological differences between the fields of information technology and organization studies, much can be gained from greater interaction between them. In particular, we argue that information technology research can benefit from incorporating institutional analysis from organization studies, while organization studies can benefit even more by following the lead of information technology research in taking the material properties of technologies into acc...

摘要：Researchers from a wide range of management areas agree that conflicts are an important part of organizational life and that their study is important. Yet, interpersonal conflict is a neglected topic in information system development (ISD). Based on definitional properties of interpersonal conflict identified in the management and organizational behavior literatures, this paper tests a model of how individuals participating in ISD projects perceive interpersonal conflict and examines the relat...
