Abstract: Information System (IS) implementations always evoke dramatic organisational changes. Despite the important role of managers in successful IS implementations, there lacks a theoretical foundation for their leadership influence. To bridge this gap, this paper offers a conceptual model for impacts of leadership on IS implementation effectiveness.

Keywords: leadership; management support; information systems; IS implementation; implementation effectiveness; organisational change; change management; conceptual modelling.
