Does Information Technology matter? This book argues that even as
Information Technology hardware, software, data and associated
processes are becoming more of a commodity, it has never been more
important to manage Information Technology as a strategic asset.
However, managing Information Technology as a strategic asset is
notoriously difficult, as is studying the impact of Information
Technology on firm performance. This book sets out to identify,
explain and critically evaluate current research in this area. A
unique feature of this book is the use of economic theory to
explain management theory and its consequences in professional
practice. Beginning with a thorough introduction to Schumpeterian
economic theory, the authors re-cast the pre-eminent theory in
strategic management research (the Resource Based View) in the
light of a Schumpeterian analysis and identify Dynamic Capabilities
as an extension of, but also a radical departure from, RBV. The
role of Information Technology as an endogenous technology is
discussed and it is argued that how we define Information
Technology determines not only how we study it but also how we use
it and benefit from it. The book is aimed primarily at the academic
research market, but should also be of some interest to managers.
It is useful more specifically for all those studying business,
Information Technology, strategy, management and innovation.
