DESCRIPTION
The use of emerging information technology is increasingly becoming more vital to maintain a sustainable competitive advantage in the workplace.  This mini-track aims to expand our knowledge regarding the adoption and diffusion of emerging information technology by looking at the organization climate.  Organizational climate research is linked to the thoughts, feelings, and behaviors of employees, information technology staff, and the top management teams that often represent their perception of organizational policies, practices, and procedures, and subsequent patterns of interactions and behaviors that affect the adoption and diffusion of emerging information technology.  Examples of emerging information technology include, but are not limited to business analytics, cloud computing, and iPads.

SUGGESTED TOPICS
*             The dimensions of the attitudes of employees, information technology staff, and the top management teams and their impact on the adoption and diffusion of emerging information technology.
*             The influence of organizational climate on the adoption and diffusion of emerging information technology.
*             Theory building that extends current theories regarding how the attitudes of employees, information technology staff, and the top management teams influence the adoption and diffusion of emerging information technology.
*             Empirical testing of current theories regarding the adoption and diffusion of emerging information technology.
*             Comparative case studies to evaluate the adoption and diffusion of emerging information technology.
