However, there is very little rigorous research to support this claim. Like most of their predecessors, the development and promotion of these methods has been almost entirely driven by practitioners and consultants, with little objective validation from the research community. This lack of validation is particularly relevant for SMEs, given that many of their project teams typify the environment to which agile methods are most suited i.e. small, co-located teams with diverse, blended skills in unstructured, sometimes even chaotic surroundings. This paper uses creativity theory as a lens to review the current agile method literature to understand exactly how much we know about the extent to which creativity actually occurs in these agile environments.

Little is known about the way expertise is managed in distributed contexts and the challenges distributed teams face when attempting to develop and share expertise. To address this gap this paper discusses the notion of expertise management and concludes that it consists of three key processes; namely, development, coordination, and integration. To illustrate the challenges involved in expertise management processes, an in-depth case study of an ABN AMRO {\textemdash} TCS outsourcing project is outlined. In this case study onsite and offshore teams developed, coordinated, and integrated expertise despite geographical distance, time-zone differences, and different local contexts. Evidence from this case suggests that this outsourcing project jointly developed expertise while coordinating and integrating expertise in a distributed manner.

However, the {\textquotedblleft}digital divide{\textquotedblright} remains and social inclusion and technology are closely linked: Not having access to technology is often seen both as part of the inclusion/exclusion problem and part of the solution by enabling access to information resources through different channels. Yet, we argue that by using technology to address an inclusion/exclusion problem, it will also result in moving the problem from one area to another. The arguments in this paper have been informed by two empirical studies around a ubiquitous technology, the mobile phone. One study is primarily based on the 18 to 25 year old age groups; the other mostly on retired people. The studies show clear differences between age groups and gender in adoption and use of the mobile telephone. Social inclusion is multifaceted; it is not an either/or measure and many attributes are subjective and depend on context. Social inclusion for mobile access is also closely linked to deeply embedded structures within society, such as those traditionally associated with gender. Technology may be changing these structures; indeed, age may be the new gender. The family or social unit may also be a useful entity to consider in the exclusion debate. Technology is being used to address social exclusion; however, we suggest that while some leveling may result, there may also be different social exclusion fronts emerging. }, doi = {10.1007/0-387-34588-4_14}, author = {Adams, Carl and Fitch, Tineke} } @inbook {878, title = {Viewing Information Technology Outsourcing Organizations through a Postcolonial Lens}, booktitle = {IFIP International Federation of Information Processing, Volume 208, Social Inclusion: Societal and Organizational Implications for Information Systems}, year = {2006}, note = {IFIP Working Group 8.2, Limerick, Ireland}, pages = {381-396}, publisher = {Springer}, organization = {Springer}, address = {Boston}, author = {Mayasandra, Ravishankar and Shan Ling Pan and Michael D.

The article is based on the assumption that there are some foundational decisions forming research: the question of methodology, the question of object of study, and, most importantly, the question of being in service. In the paper we explore and propose a research position by taking a critical stance against unreflective acceptance of information technology and instead acknowledge people{\textquoteright} s life-world as a core focus of inquiry. The position is also framed around an empirical and theoretical understanding of the evolving technology that we label the digital transformation in which an appreciation of aesthetic experience is regarded to be a focal methodological concept.}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/1-4020-8095-6_45}, author = {Stolterman, Erik and Fors, Anna} } @article {269, title = {The Use of Social Theories in 20 Years of WG 8.2 Empirical Research}, year = {2004}, month = {2004}, pages = {365 - 388}, abstract = {We study the use of social theories in empirical Information Systems research in the IFIP WG 8.2 conference proceedings since the 1984 Manchester conference. Our results are that interpretivist research and the use of qualitative methods have increased significantly and that only 22 percent of included papers generate theory or concepts according to a narrow definition of theory based on Walsham{\textquoteright}s classification; the majority of WG 8.2 researchers thus appear reluctant to generalize to theory from their findings, particularly when undertaking interpretivist research. However, using a wide definition of theory that includes researchers{\textquoteright} own theory used in their papers, we suggest that additional theory is in fact being generated although in a non-explicit manner.We close by pointing out the benefits of theory generation, inviting WG 8.2 researchers to make their use of theory more explicit and to familiarize themselves with the view that there are forms of generality which are possible within the interpretivist paradigm.}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/1-4020-8095-6_21}, author = {Flynn, Donal and Gregory, Peggy} } @article {539, title = {What is it like to do an Information Systems PhD in Europe?
