Abstract: The world today is an information society, with most of its workforce employed as knowledge workers, thus increasing the complexity of management. There is general recognition of information as a key resource. Information is considered to add value to, and differentiate products and services. New work practices like desk sharing; home working, individual learning, and the use of satellite offices are changing the work culture. In this scenario, information systems strategy plays a pivotal role and much organizational success would depend on how well integrated the information systems strategy is with the overall organizational strategy. Based on in depth literature review, reports and polices desk analysis and the authors own experience in designing and implementation strategies, this paper describes, discusses and reviews the existing models and more important proposes a holistic framework that can be adopted for evolving an effective information systems strategy in general and for SMEs and entrepreneurs in particular.
