Navigating power dynamics in the public sector through AI-driven algorithmic decision-making
The impact of legacy systems on digital transformation in European public administration
Legacy systems have continued to pose a major challenge to digital transformation efforts in public administration. A comprehensive review of literature suggests seven levels of complexity in transforming legacy systems, including, being a stand-alone system, being part of a larger system, and data incompatibility, each depicting unique criteria and challenges. Nonetheless, very little is known as to what degree these complexities implicate the i…
Strategic Decision Making and Implementation in Public Organizations in the Gulf Cooperation Council
Based on Herbert Simon's conceptualization of bounded rationality , this article develops and tests an integrative model of the strategic decision‐making process (SDMP) and outcomes in public organizations . The model integrates different SDMP dimensions—procedural rationality , intuition , participation , and constructive politics—and examines their impacts on the successful implementation of strategic decisions . Additionally , it analyzes the …
Studying Transformational Government
Citizens' continuous use of eGovernment services
The role of information and communications technology in the transformation of government and citizen trust
We present an empirically tested conceptual model based on exit–voice theory to study the influence of information and communications technology-enabled transformation of government on citizen trust in government. We conceptualize and address the key factors affecting the influence of transformation of government on citizen trust, including government performance and transparency. Based on 313 survey responses from citizens in Bahrain, the top-ra…

Factors influencing e-diplomacy implementation
Electronic diplomacy (E-diplomacy) is the use of technology by nations to define and establish diplomatic goals and objectives and to efficiently carry out the functions of diplomats. These functions include representation and promotion of the home nation, establishing both bilateral and multilateral relations, consular services and social engagement. It encapsulates the adoption of multiple ICT tools over the Internet to support a nation's inter…
Examining citizens' perceived value of internet of things technologies in facilitating public sector services engagement
Critical analysis of Big Data challenges and analytical methods
Big Data (BD), with their potential to ascertain valued insights for enhanced decision-making process, have recently attracted substantial interest from both academics and practitioners. Big Data Analytics (BDA) is increasingly becoming a trending practice that many organizations are adopting with the purpose of constructing valuable information from BD. The analytics process, including the deployment and use of BDA tools, is seen by organization…
Social innovations for social cohesion in Western Europe
In addressing the EU2020 goals, skills shortage combined with increasing unemployment rates is to be primarily tackled in Western Europe; the common factor here is education. Education and lifelong learning (LL) are the key strands governing employability in the European labour market. Overarching concepts capable of addressing social challenges within education and LL that contribute towards better practices are seen as social innovations (SI). …
Digitally-enabled service transformation in the public sector
Evaluating the use and impact of Web 2.0 technologies in local government
Second generation web-based technologies (Web 2.0) such as social media and networking sites are increasingly being used by governments for activities ranging from open policy making to communication campaigns and customer service. However, this in turn has brought about additional challenges. By its very nature, Web 2.0 technologies are more interactive than the traditional models of information provision or creation of digital services. Such te…
