The amount of data has exploded over the last ten years. Data is captured and shared from personal devices, transactional operations, sensors, social media and other sources. Firms should, thus, be able to explore the new opportunities and rapidly seize them by developing the corresponding capabilities. In our work, we focus on two emerging dynamic capabilities: Absorptive capacity and organizational agility. We propose a new theoretical Framework based on the previous literature linking the use of knowledge management systems and firm's organizational agility by highlighting the mediating role of firm's absorptive capacity. In addition, we carried out an empirical study based on a survey to support and validate the proposed Framework. The main findings of this study are presented.Keywords

The awareness of the Sustainable Development (SD) issues and stakeholder interactions in the field of information and communication technologies (ICT) management, forces companies to adopt the concepts of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and Green IT to meet the challenges of innovation agility, and afterwards to create differentiation in the processes of governance and strategic alignment of ICT. In this article, we present the enhanced model of eco-strategy as a new generation model for ICT management, which will serve as a theoretical basis and aims to improve research in the field of responsible management of ICT. The updated eco-strategy model is composed of two dimensions: "ICT Green Alignment" and "ICT Green Governance". These dimensions were designed according to a Green IT and CSR strategy to provide companies with tools for the development of coherent and sustainable managerial strategies capable of boosting overall performance and to explore new levers of transition towards renewed management modes in service the SD.Keywords
