Abstract

This paper examines IT management competencies of business executives, and analyzes how IT management competencies of business executives impact IT governance capabilities. A (knowledge-based) model interrelating explicit and tacit IT management competencies of business executives with IT governance capabilities is developed. Following a multi-method research design, preliminary results indicate that IT management competence is a multidimensional construct, in which explicit and tacit knowledge regarding IT and IT management are essential for building IT governance capabilities.
