The paper recalls ideas on the human wellbeing developments, already outlined by the Authors (Chap. 17, M.M. Cruz-Cunha, Ed., Social, Managerial & Organizational Dimensions of Enterprise Information Systems, IDEA Group Inc., Hershey, 2009, pp. 329-351, ISBN 978-1-60566-856-7). The cognitive revolution is condition of growth sustainability, requiring new social, political and management paradigms rather different from the extant Western Style ones, and, quite amazingly, more related to the regular culture and ethics ideas, which typify the Eastern Style world. The analyses list peculiarities in opposition between the two styles, such as holism and complexity instead of logic and reductionism, or fairness and conformity instead of rivalry and individualism. The pickings are examined in relation to the robot age technologies, deemed fundamental for the cognitive revolution to come, and to the cultural and ethics backdrop of a global village, aimed at safer running, because of altruism uniformity.

Particularly, it aims to explore the different ways that make EIS enables innovation development. Design/methodology/approach – The study adopted exploratory case study, based on qualitative approach. Investigations included two case studies each involved interviewing a number of senior information technology staff, working at these cases. Findings – The paper provides empirical insights about the EIS role in enabling innovation. The analysis of the case studies revealed that integrating an EIS with other system(s) or with digital devices can provide new practices that could not be easily available without these technologies. The study also found that applying data analytics tools into data accumulated from EIS, to extract new insights, lead to innovative practices. Practical implications – The study provides a set of recommendations for organizations interested to maximize the benefits from their investments in EIS. Originality/value – The paper provides evidences from cases in United Arab Emirates for the EIS role in enabling business innovation.
