Abstract
Information professionals are taking on new roles in modern organizations. Specifically, these professionals are tasked with gaining coworkers’ compliance with information communication and management policies. However, they often lack the formal authority of traditional managers. We report on preliminary findings from a qualitative study of records managers, focusing on the interpersonal skills they use to achieve compliance.
