Technology Management in the Age of Digital Technologies

This article focuses on the implications of digital technologies (DTs) for the technology management (TM) discipline. This article explores DT-induced changes through the lens of the widely used TM framework, where TM is a dynamic capability consisting of activities developing and implementing technologies as a source for competition. The findings help to offer an expansion of the TM framework in three major ways: 1) inclusion of orchestration as a new TM capability/activity, 2) integration of TM activities across multimodal stakeholder interactions, and 3) emphasis on the critical role of TM professionals in carrying out TM activities. The proposed expanded version of the TM framework aims to provide a basis for future theoretical and applied research to advance understanding of the TM discipline.
