| Abstract (ENG): |
Owing to the increasing regulatory pressure and the need for aligned IT decisions, governance of IT has
become important for both academia and practice. However, knowledge that integrates the determinants
and consequences of IT governance success remains scarce. Although some studies investigate single
aspects of IT governance success and its impact, none of these combine these factors into a comprehensive
and integrated model. To address this gap, our research aims at understanding what factors influence and
result from successful IT governance, and at determining how they can be translated into a model to
explain IT governance success and its impact. Therefore, we conducted 28 interviews in 19 companies
across different industries. Based on the analysis, we present a model that helps understanding what
factors make IT governance successful and how IT governance contributes to an IT organization’s success
and, eventually, unfolds to the overall organization. Thus, it allows organizational decision-makers to
develop an effective IT governance implementation and to explain the implications of successful IT governance |
