Global virtual teams coordination mechanisms: Building theory from research in software development
The advent of globalisation has led to the growing use of global virtual teams (GVT) for software development. The use of such teams enables organisations to operate across national, economic and social, and cultural boundaries; this new form of teamwork presents challenges for traditional coordination mechanisms. Hence, a range of new operational problems for the coordination of software development teams have emerged due to the nature of virtua…

The future of a mourner: Seamus Heaney’s late work
Throughout his career, Seamus Heaney’s poetry was often inspired by his memory of people and things that have passed away. In his late work, however, memory takes the form of mourning, and his memory of deceased friends and family gains poignancy as he acknowledges his own mortality. Drawing contrasts with the forms of mourning described by Sigmund Freud and Roland Barthes, this essay shows how Heaney manages to arrive at solace by imagining not …
A critical realist method for applied business research
While the business research community has moved from describing critical realism as simply a compromise philosophy between positivists and interpretivists to its acceptance in its own right, it still lacks a choice of methods or processes for the business researcher to utilize. This paper presents a proposed method that can be used by business researchers who follow the critical realist paradigm. It explores the suitability of a critical realist …
Understanding the design of information technologies for knowledge management in organizations: A Pragmatic Perspective
Researchers report mixed findings on the successful application of information technologies (IT) for knowledge management (KM). The primary difficulty is argued to be the use of information management techniques and concepts to design and develop KM Tools. Also problematic is the existence of a multiplicity of KM technologies, the application and use of which differs across organizations. This paper argues that these problems stem, in part, from …
Social Inclusion: Societal and Organizational Implications for Information Systems: Ifip TC8 WG8.2 International Working Conference, July 12–15, 2006, Limerick, Ireland
Changes in society resulting from the pervasiveness of information technology have produced positive and negative, intended and unintended consequences. Key among them is the exclusion of individuals—who lack access to technological resources—from various societal processes and services. The theme of this book, social inclusion, explores the many dimensions of this exclusion. This issue has been the focus of much debate within the social sciences…
