Consortium research focuses on three broad themes: managing the
evolving networked organization; governing and managing IT resources
and operations; and the interplay between IT and user environments.
Networked Organizations
In the face of ever-changing and more powerful information and communications technologies, companies must evolve their strategy and structure simultaneously. As companies migrate to new and more efficient organizational forms such as value networks, they must coordinate their technology strategies with their partners. They must learn to manage distributed and inter-organizational workgroups while fostering innovation. They must develop new leadership skills to enable successful collaboration and leverage the networked business model.

Managing IT Resources
The ability to manage IT resources in order to enable business strategy is an enduring challenge for most companies. Doing it well requires expertise in price setting, establishing and managing sourcing arrangements, evaluating the advantages of alignment or flexibility and knowing how to extract business value from your IT investments.

IT & User Environments
We still have limited knowledge of how technology is adopted in the
workplace, home and across the globe. Understanding how users adopt
and interact with technology leads to the design of better products
and processes.
