Bio/Research

Dr. Linying Dong is a Full Professor at the Ted Rogers School of Information Technology Management. After her graduation from the Richard Ivey School of Business in 2004, Dr. Dong joined Toronto Metropolitan University (formerly Ryerson) and become a valuable member who has excelled at research, teaching and services.

Dr. Dong is passionate about conducting significant research in the field of Management Information Systems (MIS) with the aim of producing actionable knowledge. Her research centers around IT leadership, IT governance, and IT-enabled business process improvement. Dr. Dong has established her reputation in IT leadership, particularly in IT adoption and implementation. Her research on the impact of project champions and supervisors on the successful adoption and implementation of an enterprise system (e.g., SAP, Oracle) has been published in top-tier IS journals, including Information Technology (JIT), European Journal of Information Systems (EJIS), Information Systems Journal (ISJ), Communications of the AIS and International Journal of Information Management ((IJIM).

In the area of IT governance, Dr. Dong focuses on information governance in the Canadian healthcare system and sustainable elderly care. She was instrumental in a research project that collaborated with COACH, Canada’s Health Informatics Association (former Digital Health Canada), in the development of a shared health information governance framework and a maturity model assessing health information governance. Collaborating with experienced healthcare practitioners and researchers, she co-authored the article "Why is information governance important for electronic healthcare systems? A Canadian experience" and published the INTEGRATE model, shedding light on IT and integrated care in the healthcare sector. To raise awareness of IT governance in the Canadian healthcare sector, she wrote a commentary, "Good governance is the missing ingredient for effective digital health care," which was published in the Conversation, a well-known outlet promoting independent and high-quality publications.

Dr. Dong is keen on emerging technologies and their significant implications for practitioners. Collaborating with practitioners, she has co-authored cases encompassing cloud computing, mobile payment, health inventory management, and system integration for healthcare, which are published by the renowned Ivey Case Publishing and case-oriented outlets.
