Key Information Systems Issues for the 1980’s

Abstract

Knowledge of the most important issues in the information systems field would help focus research and educational efforts. A Delphi study, using leading information systems (IS) professionals, was used to identify and rank ten key IS management issues for the 1980’s. Measures were also taken of the amount of agreement achieved on these issues and rankings. The number one issue identified was improved IS planning, followed by facilitation and management of end user computing. This article describes the research approach involved and discusses the results. This research was funded by the Society for Information Management and the MIS Research Center, School of Management, University of Minnesota.
