Piling Higher & Deeper Again, Again…

The next three weeks I am working on my PhD (more about academic life here). Buried in books at the IT-University of Copenhagen, I will try to get my hands around my research question, my publications and the red thread in my research.
My first challenge is to reflect on my research question. The blurry question that I am working with these days is “Why and how is enterprise architecture adopted as an information systems planning trend/innovation in the public sector?” It needs to be more focused and linked with my publications.
The goal of my PhD-project is to produce a paper model dissertation that contributes to the scare research carried out in the area of EA in government by conducting various studies in public agencies in Denmark and the USA. So fare, I have a couple of decent publications under my belt. But, I need to produce a plan for 1)which publications to include in my PhD-dissertation and 2)which articles I can/must write to tie it all together.
I am very motivated and will try to keep you all up to date on my progress in the lab.
