Conflict as Manifestation of Culture in Global IS Outsourcing Relationships
In: Proceedings of the 18th European Conference on Information System (ECIS 2010); Pretoria, South Africa
Category: Proceedings
AbstractThe objective of this paper is to propose a new way of analyzing culture in global IS outsourcing relationships. Previous research in IS has focused on the analysis of values, beliefs, customs, and other elements of culture whereas other inherent characteristics of culture, such as its dynamic and subjective nature, have been widely ignored. Hence, we suggest analyzing culture and identity in relation to action thereby accounting in more detail for the above mentioned characteristics. In particular, we develop a conceptual model describing the relationship between social identity and conflict in global IS outsourcing relationships. Propositions are derived from social identity and inter-personal conflict theory. The concept of cognitive flexibility (derived from cultural intelligence theory) is introduced as a moderator variable, influencing the relationship between social identity and inter-personal conflict. The conceptual model developed in this paper makes a theoretical contribution to the global IS outsourcing domain and serves as a basis for future empirical research.

Understanding Sources of Conflict in Near- and Offshore IT Outsourcing Projects
In: Proceedings of the 3rd International Research Workshop on IT Project Management (IRWITPM 2008); Paris, France
Category: Proceedings
AbstractThe objective of this paper is to develop a theoretical model depicting sources of conflict in near- and offshore outsourcing projects. As previous research in the IT outsourcing conflict domain is scarce, we draw on the literature stream on global virtual teams as a conceptual basis. We transfer an existing model of conflict in global virtual teams to the IT outsourcing domain and enhance our understanding of conflict in global IT outsourcing projects by additional near- and offshore outsourcing specific characteristics. A key finding is that conflict in global IT outsourcing projects is caused by antecedents that go beyond geographic distance and technology mediation. Furthermore, subtle differences exist between near- and offshoring projects concerning the relevance and effect of individual antecedents.
