The serendipitous impact of COVID-19 pandemic: A rare opportunity for research and practice
作者：
Highlights：
• The Covid-19 pandemic is a rare opportunity to examine some fundamental aspects of IM and IS research and practice.
• There are at least three areas where the pandemic has impacted practice: information management, work practices and design of technologies.
• The IS discipline has appropriate methods and theories to study the design of technologies and social interactions.
• Concepts such as “social distancing” that has emerged in the pandemic need to be studied through philosophical premises.
• The IM practices that emerge after the pandemic is over, will be shaped by how well we seize the opportunity to learn from the pandemic.
