Enid Mumford's Contribution to Information Systems Theory and Theoretical Thinking: Introduction to the Special Issue

Journal of the Association for Information Systems | September 1, 2007| | Copyright

We launched this special issue in order to stimulate discourse on how Enid Mumford has influenced and continues to influence information systems theory and practice. The work on the special issue began with an interview of Enid Mumford several years ago. The purpose of this interview, which is the first paper of the special issue, was to find out from Enid, herself, how she saw the status of her career at the time. After the interview, it seemed that a special issue that would show different sides of her influence would celebrate and push forward her intellectual contributions. A prominent ...
