In collaboration with Information Systems Management (ISM) journal, Association for Information Systems (AIS) Special Interest Group on IS Leadership (SIG LEAD) proudly presents the 2017 ISM SIG LEAD Special Issue. This special issue is in line with the mission of the AIS SIG LEAD to:

Create a forum for the discussion, exchange, and dissemination of information on IS Leadership in the areas of:

  *   IS Leadership - CIOs and other senior leaders
  *   IS Professional Development - IS employees/internal workforce
  *   IS Professional Services - IS consultants and contractors/external workforce
  *   Encourage and promote the study of IS leadership
As information technology (IT) has been assuming a greater strategic role in today’s businesses, the role of Information Systems (IS) executives is more important than ever.  The complexities of emerging technologies, interdependencies and intricacies of business operations and processes, and a constantly changing business environment present great challenges to IS executives in setting directions, creating commitment, adapting their IT unit, and fitting the organization’s business goals.
Accordingly, IS leadership is an enduring concern for IS research, practice, and education. For this special issue, topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

  *   Educating and developing IS leaders
  *   Creating sustainable IS leadership
  *   IS leadership research
  *   IS leadership readiness assessment
  *   Attributes of effective IS leaders
  *   IS technological leadership
  *   Impact of IS leadership on firm performance
  *   Types of IS leadership
  *   IS consulting
  *   Emerging issues to leaders and professionals (i.e. impact of cloud or big data on the profession)
