Prof Sid Huff

Introduction

Information systems management and strategy

Sid's interests centre on the strategic use of information technology. This encompasses such elements as how companies deploy this technology to support, or shape, their strategic goals; how companies align the use of IT to their business objectives; how senior executives who have to manage this technology think and work; how electronic commerce is impacting business strategy in organisations of all sizes; and, how firms think about the governance of their IT activities.

Sid stepped down as Head of School in 2010 after after nine years in the role, but continues in his role as Professor in Information Systems. He was honoured with an Association for Information Systems (AIS) Fellowship in 2010, which is the premier global organisation for academics specialising in information systems, and this award recognises his outstanding contributions to the Information Systems discipline in terms of research, teaching, and service.
