Resumo: | As more organizations have increasingly invested in Information Technology (IT) and such technology has influenced their business processes in a increasing way, the role of IT in the performance of organizations has aroused great interest. In order to analyze this impact, several models have been developed. Supporting these models, two important strategy schools - considered to be conflicting to each other - have been used to model the role of IT in the strategy of organiza-tions: the school of positioning and the school of resources. This theoretical article aims to build a bridge between these two strategy schools of thought, using IT as a missing link. Thus, applying a theoretical-exploratory approach, this work unveils four propositions aiming at integrating these two strategy schools, backed by the role of IT in the organizations, so as to help academics and practitioners to better understand the strategic role of IT in the firms. |

Para análise desse impacto, diversos modelos têm sido desenvolvidos. Por trás desses modelos, duas grandes escolas de estratégia - consideradas antagônicas - se sobressaem e têm sido utilizadas para modelar o papel da TI na estratégia das organizações: a escola de posicionamento e a escola de recursos. O objetivo deste artigo teórico é propor uma articulação entre essas duas linhas de pensamento estratégico, tendo como elo de ligação o papel estratégico da TI nas firmas. Dessa forma, através de uma abordagem teórico-exploratória, esse artigo formula quatro proposições que visam integrar essas duas escolas à luz do papel da TI nas organizações, para ajudar acadêmicos e practitioners a melhor entenderem o papel estratégico da TI nas empresas.Escola Brasileira de Administração Pública e de Empresas da Fundação Getulio Vargas2007-01-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.fgv.br/cadernosebape/article/view/5010Cadernos EBAPE.BR; Vol. 5 No. 1 (2007); 1 a 17Cadernos EBAPE.BR; Vol. 5 Núm. 1 (2007); 1 a 17Cadernos EBAPE.BR; v. 5 n. 1 (2007); 1 a 171679-3951reponame:Cadernos EBAPE.BRinstname:Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV)instacron:FGVporhttps://periodicos.fgv.br/cadernosebape/article/view/5010/3744Ramos, Eduardo Augusto de AndradeJoia, Luiz Ainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2016-10-10T17:09:44Zoai:ojs.periodicos.fgv.br:article/5010Revistahttps://periodicos.fgv.br/cadernosebapehttps://periodicos.fgv.br/cadernosebape/oaicadernosebape@fgv.br||cadernosebape@fgv.br1679-39511679-3951opendoar:2024-05-13T09:59:23.615736Cadernos EBAPE.BR - Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV)true |
