This book attempts to make sense of a new area of integrated study,
namely information systems and information technology (IS/IT) and
the organization. It also aims to bring this mix into the broader
theme of complexity as applied to organization and management and
to draw useful conclusions about how to organize and how to manage
IS/IT in the knowledge era. The author argues in favour of a more
action-oriented - as opposed to planning dominated - approach to
information systems management. Key topics discussed include:
complexity, enacted cognition and autopoiesis applied to
organizations; managerial action as a foil to the prevailing
managerial paradigm; managerial action and the formation of
cultural knowledge contexts in organizations and an holistic
approach to information systems development. The book concludes
with consideration of the problems surrounding epistemology.
Organizational Knowledge and Technology will be warmly welcomed by
academics and researchers working in the areas of technology,
management, information systems and organizational science as well
as information systems managers.
