JMGT_V3_N4_RP1 Konstandinos Kutsikos Journal on Management 2230 – 715X 3 4 1 10 collaborative organizational structures, IT Governance, auditing, collaborative technologies In this article, we investigate how emerging technology-driven corporate structures affect the evolution of Information Technology (IT) Governance. After explaining basic terms and definitions, we describe the current landscape of IT Governance frameworks. We then focus on emerging Collaborative Organizational Structures (COS) and describe their underlying technical infrastructure, namely collaborative technologies. We bring the two concepts together by investigating the 'COS effect' on a well-known framework for IT Governance, focusing on two of its components: a) role and responsibilities of auditors; b) strategic information system planning. Finally, we provide a brief description of next steps and directions of our research efforts. March - May 2009 Copyright © 2009 i-manager publications.
