How to Generate Research Impact: A Framework and Checklist for Impact-Aware Information Systems Research

This report presents a framework for measuring research impact in Information Systems, a field where traditional academic metrics (like citation counts) don't capture the full value of research for organizations and society. Researchers from a global workshop developed a matrix that evaluates research across six themes (such as stakeholder engagement and ethics) and four project phases (planning, delivering, measuring, communicating) to help IS researchers design more impactful work.
