Abstract
This study examined the relationship among constructs that impact on strategic use of IS(Information Systems). Independent variables were OIQ(Organizational Intelligence Quotient) and role of CIO(Chief of Information Officer) as a top manager, and dependent variable are strategic use of IS. The dependent variable has three-sub constructs: 1) IT infrastructure flexibility; 2) operation-orientation; and 3) market-orientation. Seven research hypotheses derived from the research model, and were empirically tested using the PLS (Partial Least Squares) method. The research results confirmed that both OIQ and CIO`s roles have strong impact on organizations` strategic use of IS. Communication and business network among the sub-constructs of OIQ have effect on strategic use of IS. CIO`s role as a top manager was found to be significant. CIO`s role as a resource allocator and innovator among the CIO`s roles showed significant influence on strategic use of IS. OIQ was also significantly related to CIO`s role as a top manager. This study suggests practical implications and insights to the enterprises which aim to apply IT strategically.
