Abstract: (WP 19/03 Clave pdf) This paper presents an exploratory study of IS competencies of business managers in Spain.Following resource-based theory and a knowledge-based view of IS competencies, an extensive review of the literature is conducted to identify a comprehensive list of IS competencies of business managers. In order to validate the business IS competence model, a Delphi study is conducted using 2 panels consisting of general managers and IS managers.The results indicate that IS competencies of business managers involve a fluid mix of both explicit and tacit knowledge components, and suggest that ´core´ IS competencies involve knowledge and experience in the strategic management of IS.
