Information　Systems　Management(ISM)　is　closely　related　to　global　business　because　Information　Systems(IS)　made　significant　contributions　in　both　facilitating　and　driving　global　businesses.　Nevertheless,　it　is　still　a　great　challenge　to　manage　the　IS　in　an　increasingly　integrated　global　environment　because　the　management　has　to　face　the　differences　of　various　countries.　Based　on　literature　study,　this　article　reviews　the　contents　of　ISM　and　examines　possible　influential　factors　on　the　Global　Information　Systems　Management(GISM).　We　provide　two　frameworks　to　motivate　further　research　for　GISM.　The　first　framework　is　GISM-tasks-oriented,　and　the　other　one　is　GISM　life　cycle　oriented.　The　objective　of　both　frameworks　is　to　address　the　following　question:　How　can　we　properly　manage　IS　development,　implementation,　operation,　using,　maintenance,　updating　and　upgrading　in　an　internationalised　environment?　Our　frameworks　in　this　paper　comprise　the　content　of　GISM　and　six　external　influential　factors,　which　illuminate　the　research　issues　and　opportunities.
