Today at the business meeting of the IFIP Working Group 8.2 on Information Systems and Organizations, I was elected the secretary of the group. This marks the start of a nine (yes, 9!) year commitment--3 years each as secretary, vice chair and chair of the group. Fortunately, it's a great group--you can read more about them on their website.

In Spring 2009, I will be teaching IST 830, the doctoral seminar in Information Systems, and IST 422/600, Acquiring, Procuring and Financing Information Technology. The later is an on-line only course, with a mix of masters and advanced undergraduates, which is always exciting.
