Abstract
Digital transformation is one of the dominant th
emes in contemporary IS research which spurs many theoretical debates
. These debates culminate in different viewpoints on digital transfor
mation. In this talk, I will present current Research-in-Progress ana
lyzing the digital transformation process of a German mid-sized Enter
prise looking back on over 500 years of history. Drawing on two diffe
rent theoretical perspectives on digital transformation, i.e., a syno
ptic, entity-orientation and a performative, flow-orientation one, we
discuss the value of the different perspectives and show the importa
nce of analytical pluralism to understand different sides of this soc
io-technological phenomenon.

Abstract
Digital transformation is one of the dom
inant themes in contemporary IS research which spurs many theoretical
debates. These debates culminate in different viewpoints on digital
transformation. In this talk, I will present current Research-in-Prog
ress analyzing the digital transformation process of a German mid-siz
ed Enterprise looking back on over 500 years of history. Drawing on t
wo different theoretical perspectives on digital transformation, i.e.
, a synoptic, entity-orientation and a performative, flow-orientation
one, we discuss the value of the different perspectives and show the
importance of analytical pluralism to understand different sides of
this socio-technological phenomenon.
