Management invests in large information systems in order to improve the effectiveness of their organisation. However, when these systems fail to meet the needs of organisational employees, feral information systems (FIS) are created in order to assist workers with their jobs or to avoid existing organsational information systems.

Feral Information Systems Development: Managerial Implications seeks to accelerate the collective understandings and implications on the management of business organisations; with an emphasis on theoretical explanations on the development of feral information systems. This book is an essential reference work aimed at providing a more clearly defined and better informed starting point for researchers, consultants and practitioners who are eager to advance both their practical applications and theoretical understandings of complex and challenging phenomena surrounding FISs.
