Resumen
- IT governance is the discipline of corporate governance that covers IT. Governing IT is not a simple discipline: researchers and practitioners have developed frameworks, best practices, etc. The standard ISO/IEC 38.500 sets the principles, and activities to be carried in the organization to implement IT governance. Family owned enterprises introduces a specific particularity regarding not only governance but also IT governance: the family. This paper presents an analysis of IT governance in family owned enterprises considering this singularity, from the Spanish perspective. Also, introduces two examples of implementing IT governance in family owned enterprises.
