Abstract

A decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) can be envisioned as an organization or society where its design, processes, and operational tasks are coded in the form of agreements or smart contracts, adhering to guidelines, values, and collective consensus. This paper underpins how organization design constructs (structure, strategy) and organization innovation constructs (innovation complexity, novel delivery) are related and sequenced to DAO transformation excellence (organizational excellence, organizational user expectation). An online survey of 262 blockchain DAO practitioners and researchers was conducted using SmartPLS to demonstrate empirical research findings (probably the first empirical research paper) on the implementation of blockchain DAO in organization design. The study focuses on understanding the role of blockchain DAO in organization design and innovation and how the users can leverage the technology, its substitutes, implementation readiness, and its impacts on organizations. Findings from the paper will help managers develop platforms and tools for various situations related to DAO-led organization design.

迈向区块链去中心化自治组织（DAO）设计

去中心化自治组织（DAO）可以设想为一个组织或社会，其设计、流程和运营任务都以协议或智能合约的形式编码，遵守准则、价值观和集体共识。本文阐述了组织设计构建（结构、战略）和组织创新构建（创新复杂性、新颖交付）与 DAO 转型卓越性（组织卓越性、组织用户期望）之间的关系和顺序。利用SmartPLS对262名区块链DAO从业者和研究者进行了在线调查，以展示关于区块链DAO在组织设计中的实施的实证研究成果（可能是第一篇实证研究论文）。研究重点在于了解区块链 DAO 在组织设计和创新中的作用，以及用户如何利用该技术、其替代品、实施准备情况及其对组织的影响。本文的研究结果将有助于管理者开发平台和工具，以应对与DAO主导的组织设计相关的各种情况。

期刊介绍： The interdisciplinary interfaces of Information Systems (IS) are fast emerging as defining areas of research and development in IS. These developments are largely due to the transformation of Information Technology (IT) towards networked worlds and its effects on global communications and economies. While these developments are shaping the way information is used in all forms of human enterprise, they are also setting the tone and pace of information systems of the future. The major advances in IT such as client/server systems, the Internet and the desktop/multimedia computing revolution, for example, have led to numerous important vistas of research and development with considerable practical impact and academic significance. While the industry seeks to develop high performance IS/IT solutions to a variety of contemporary information support needs, academia looks to extend the reach of IS technology into new application domains. Information Systems Frontiers (ISF) aims to provide a common forum of dissemination of frontline industrial developments of substantial academic value and pioneering academic research of significant practical impact.
