Pré requis

Objectifs du cours
Managers have to take important strategic decisions on the basis of observations. After this class, students should be able to observe the reality correctly, to analyse their observations and to make valid decisions on the basis of their analysis. Therefore, students have to work rigorously.
Students should also know a number of important Information System theories that apply to companies, such as the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) and Protection Motivation Theory (PMT).
Students should have greater awareness about ethics and social responsibility issues in the IS domain. Specifically, students will be required to conduct interviews (and make observations) in companies, related to ethics and social responsibility in the IS domain. (In previous years, these concerned the use of 3rd party trackers on websites, and automation leading to lay offs.)
Contenu du cours
First, students will get a list of theories that are important to managers and each student will have to pick one theory that seems interesting to him/her. Next, the student will have to study and clearly explain that theory to the fellow students and together we discuss what new applications are thinkable of the theory.
Next all students together choose a topic that will be investigated in more detail in this class. A research question will be put forward and students will have to develop an interview protocol to interview people in companies. Next, students do the interviews, transcribe the interviews and analyze the interviews (using NVivo software), in order to come up with a good answer to the research question.
During this class, students will also get presentations of the IT landscape in specific companies. For instance, the CIO of IESEG will present the IT department and the IT systems that are used at IESEG.
Students will also play the TopConsulting Game.
