[AISWorld] Wisdom and Technology

[Dalal, Nik]

Are you interested in issues at the intersection of wisdom and technology? Please indicate your interest below in presenting in a panel or in writing a book chapter or in providing your suggestions.

We would like to put together a panel at the forthcoming AMCIS 2013 on "Wisdom and Technology". The panel will address a broad array of individual, organizational and societal issues at the intersection of wisdom and technology.  Potential topics in the panel presentation may include topics addressing the following themes:

*         Drawing upon and extending knowledge management concepts for wisdom (e.g., learning organizations, inquiring organizations, personal knowledge management)

*         Meaningful distinctions between knowledge, wisdom, and ethics in the context of information systems teaching, research, and practice

*         Design, management, use, and implications of technologies for consciously discovering, creating, sharing, and supporting wisdom in individuals, organizations, and societies

*         Interdisciplinary or transdiscipilinary understanding of the nature of wisdom in a technology-driven world

*         Mindful living with and connected by technologies for personal, professional, and societal well being

*         Philosophy of technology and applications of philosophies to a technology-based world
If you are interested, please send a paragraph description of the topic(s) you'd like to address and a brief biosketch by Sunday, Feb 10 .  Depending upon the level of interest,  the types of topics, and the number of interested people, we will submit a panel submission to AMCIS.  [For the future: selected panelists may be invited later to submit book chapters for a proposed book on the above theme.]
