Abstract

The goal of this literature review is to evaluate the cultural variables critical to successful leadership of a global information technology project. Also to analyze the fundamental challenges to today’s IT projects. To properly evaluate variables critical to successful leadership, a thorough investigation must be made of the leader, which in most cases will be the CIO or IT Manager. Technology acceptance is the concept of how end users accept and therefore use technology and is a key cultural variable critical to success. The concept of technology acceptance is very important and applies to a wide scope of users including both personal and business end users, IT employees and managers, and business executives. Jiun-Sheng and Hsing-Chi (2011) write, “Consumers’ adoption of new information technology has been a central concern to many researchers and practitioners owing to its importance in technology diffusion.” (p. 424).
