| Summary: | The aim of this paper is to investigate if employee alignment
will influence the business-IT alignment in organizations. We
measured employee alignment through perceived organizational
trust, perceived communications on business-IT strategies to
employees, perceived employee commitment to business-IT
strategies and perceived knowledge on business-IT strategies.
Structural equation modelling (SEM) is used to test the model and
hypotheses in this research. The findings from this study indicated
that perceived organizational trust, perceived communications on
business-IT strategies to employees and perceived knowledge on
business-IT strategies have a positive and significant relationship
with business-IT alignment of organizations. This study
addresses the lack of empirical research by investigating whether
employee alignment would improve an organization’s business-
IT alignment. |
