A new edition of the #1 text in the human computer Interaction field!

This book seeks to chart the technology-fueled changes taking place in the field of corporate governance and describes the impact these changes are having on boards and the enterprises they govern. It also describes what the future could look like once companies truly embrace the power of technology to change governance. 

Additionally, this book will provide a set of "suggested action steps" for companies and their boards focused on ways they can leverage technology tools to enhance governance immediately. Through a review of the latest governance research, interviews with key thought leaders, and case studies of enterprises that have embraced governance technology, readers will be armed with new insights and approaches they can take to enhance the work of their boards and senior leaders to reach new levels of performance.

  • Explains how to use design and evaluation techniques for developing successful interactive technologies
  • Demonstrates, through many examples, the cognitive, social and affective issues that underpin the design of these technologies
  • Provides thought-provoking design dilemmas and interviews with expert designers and researchers
  • Uses a strong pedagogical format to foster understanding and enjoyment 

An accompanying website contains extensive additional teaching and learning material including slides for each chapter, comments on chapter activities, and a number of in-depth case studies written by researchers and designers.
