The "Association Information et Management (AIM)" organizes a research 
workshop open to practitioners, teachers and researchers in information 
systems (IS), but also in all fields related to IS. Indeed, the scope of 
IS covers specific topics (usage, sociomateriality ...) but also 
benefits from the richness of interactions with other fields in 
Management Science (Marketing, HR, Finance, Strategy, Entrepreneurship , 
...), Computer Science, Economics or Sociology.


    Positioning

The recent global challenges organizations have to meet in order to 
survive successfully, demands innovative and comprehensive solutions 
which include and involve information Systems. How could taking into 
account cultures (regional culture, national culture, IT culture, 
organizational culture, etc.) and IS help us answer such global 
challenges? What attributes do these cultures and IS need to possess? 
How may our theories, tools, practices and methods contribute to the 
global internationalization of a firm while allowing this firm to remain 
local? How can IS enhance such a globalization in order to make it 
harmonious, sustainable, but also respectful of the local communities? 
What alignment between Cultures and IS should be achieved in firms in 
order to facilitate such a global internationalization?

In today's globalized markets, IT have now become part of our day-to-day 
life (Jouët, 2000) and of our work life (Orlikowski and Scott, 2008), of 
our practices, of our culture. In recent years, an increasing number of 
research works (see the literature reviews of Gallivan and Srite, 2005; 
Kappos and Rivard, 2008 and Leidner and Kayworth, 2006) have studied the 
effects of culture on IT and of IT on culture. However, few works have 
investigated the concept of an IT culture whether at the individual and 
group levels (Walsh, Kefi and Baskerville) or at the organizational 
level (Kaarst-Brown and Robey, 1999). The process through which IT 
values are adopted within organizations i.e., through which IT culture 
builds up and develops has remained a black box.In order to lead firms 
toward improved performance, it appears urgent and essential to open 
this black box to help us manage IT diffusion within organizations, as 
well as their adoption and appropriation by individuals.
