Exploring and Developing an IT Governance Culture Framework

摘要

The concept of IT governance culture is relatively new. In this paper we develop an IT Governance culture model based on Detert et al's (2000) framework involving eight dimensions of culture. Each dimension is described in terms of how they relate to the implementation of IT governance initiatives. Our contribution is to illustrate the utility of the framework by linking the eight general cultural dimensions to propose a normative model of ITG values and beliefs, that we argue, represent the 'ideal organisational culture' of successful ITG implementations. By doing so we present a necessary step in developing the concept of ITG culture and moving products such as COBIT5 towards a more comprehensive framework based on systemic empirical research.
