Biography

Dr.
Sieber's areas of interest center on the interplay of strategic
management and information systems, as well as on the role of new
information and communication technologies (ICT) for organizational
learning and innovation. She has studied problems of technology
adoption and IS implementation in great depth. In her research, she
highlights the need for an improved user knowledge about IS, especially
if IS has a strategic role in the organization; she also claims that a
more interdepartmental and collaborative approach of joint project
accountability is needed.
Dr. Sieber is currently looking into
ICT-enhanced innovation and how the adoption of new technologies may
change work-practices in enterprises. Dr. Sieber is especially
interested in those industries that are being transformed by recent
technological advances, such as telecommunication, banking, media and
entertainment.
Dr. Sieber has published scholarly and general
articles in national and international journals, magazines and
newspapers, and contributed to several books. Recently, McGraw Hill
