Abstracting/Indexing Services and Journal Lists

IJODE is a scholarly journal aiming at the development of organisational design and engineering (ODE), defined as the application of social science, design science and computer science research and practice to the study and implementation of new organisational designs, including the integrated structuring, modelling, development and deployment of IS/IT and social processes. ODE can be classified as a sub-discipline of the discipline of information systems. However, ODE is not restricted to the paradigm or the literature of information systems but is manifestly open to influences from organisation science and computer science/engineering

IJODE intends to break down the "either-or" mindset which still constitutes a major obstacle to the development of strategic and operational thinking about organisations in the 21st century.

 Go Top  Objectives

IJODE aims at advancing research and practice in ODE by bringing together individuals or groups working on the same or related areas and finding out how the various perspectives might be made to converge in terms of research objectives, methodologies and results. An important objective is also to promote collaborative research, including not only academics but also practitioners.

 Go Top  Readership

The readership of IJODE includes academics and practitioners in the fields of business, information systems, management, strategy, computer science, and organisation science education.

 Go Top  Contents

IJODE publishes original papers, review papers, technical reports, case studies and book reviews.

 Go Top  Subject Coverage

Topics covered by IJODE include but are not limited to:

  • Real-time organisation: the impact of real-time information on organisational design
  • Organisational self-awareness: the increasing feedback capabilities associated with the implementation of informating artefacts in organisations
  • New organisational design principles and rules: the co-evolution of design-by-decision and emergent design
  • Social networking: the study of social networks and of networking applications as catalysts of emergent design
  • Visual management: the power of computer-based artefacts in making emergent designs visible
  • New approaches to the integration of computer-based artefact in organisation design: autopoiesis, social infrastructures, adaptive structuration
  • Knowledge management: the role of information systems in supporting emergent knowledge processes
  • The limits of organisational modelling: how to integrate design-by-decision with emergent design modelling
  • Ethical issues: the limits of organisational self-awareness arising from the new modelling and technological capabilities
  • Dynamic enterprise architectures: how to adapt business architectural models to fit emergent organisational designs
  • Organisational innovation: how organisations learn and change through the misalignment between planned and emergent design
  • Fast-cycle information system development: the continuous development cycle driven by emergent organisational designs
  • The impact of organisational design qualities on the design of computer-based artefacts
  • Organisational strategy: computer-based artefacts as drivers of strategy instead of merely supporters of strategy
