journal contribution
posted on 2019-01-01, 00:00 authored by Hind BenbyaHind Benbya, Dorothy Leidner, David PrestonThe alignment of Information Systems (IS) with the business (i.e., hereafter IS alignment) has been a top managerial concern for over 30 years and remains an ongoing research stream of key interest to the IS discipline. IS alignment represents an emergent process of dynamic interactions and continual adjustments between business and IS across multiple organizational dimensions (e.g., strategic, operational and social) and also organizational levels (e.g., the organization itself, group level, and the individual level) that collectively can potentially result in greater organizational performance. The goal of this curation is to provide a state of the art perspective on IS alignment research published in MIS Quarterly in order to offer a reference point and platform for future research on IS alignment.
