IS theory web site

I contacted Professors Petter and Randolph because their work is so interesting. See my earlier blog on their work here. They kindly answered. One resource they reminded me of, I haven't been there for a while, is the IS theory website, which is really useful and comprehensive. There is a page on social capital theory that includes a listing of papers in IS that use this theory:

Social capital theory & IT

I found this paper (pdf) on IT and social capital but I was too late to get to the workshop where it was presented. Randolph and Petter write on the role of social capital inIT project management, arguing that who the project manager knows is important, so they introduce the theory of social capital, suggesting implications and possible future research. I wonder if they know anyone already researching this.

Project management & social capital

Found an interesting workshop last week - too late. It was a workshop on IT project management, and some of the papers looked useful, especially the one on social capital in IT project management by Randolph and Petter.
