The Technology manager's journey: an extended narrative approach to educating technical leaders
Technology management poses particular challenges for educators because it requires facility with different kinds of knowledge and wide-ranging learning abilities. The researchers report on the development and delivery of an information technology management course designed to address these challenges. Their approach is built around a narrative, the "IVK extended case series," a fictitious but reality-based story about a newly appointed, not-technically-trained chief information officer in his first year on the job. They report results using this approach with undergraduate and graduate students in two universities located in different countries, and with executives at a major multinational corporation and an open enrollment program at a major business school. Student course feedback and a follow-up survey administered about 1 year after the course suggest that the extended narrative approach mostly achieves its design objectives. They suggest that the approach might be used more widely in teaching technology management, particularly with "digital natives," who have come of age in an environment crowded with engaging approaches to communication and entertainment competing for their attention..Printed journal
