A Storytelling Approach for Electronic Government Research

• Electronic government has a history of repeating projects that previously proved difficult to implement. One possible reason for this is that we do not learn enough from past experiences. Lessons are not widely shared and we do not always get the "full story". Only a narrow group have the ability to understand and access research findings. The use of a storytelling approach could make electronic government research more comprehensible, and accessible. It could also be used as an analytical tool to bridge theory and practice. However, storytelling approaches are currently not used within this research field. In this paper, I present an analysis of the value of using storytelling to show how including multiple voices, examining myths, and writing stories could play an important role in dealing with electronic government challenges.
