  • The hopes and fears of artificial intelligence

    Open AccessKasper Elmholdt, Jeppe Agger Nielsen et al.ARTICLEAI & Society2025

    Artificial intelligence (AI) has captured the interest of multiple actors with speculations about its benefits and dangers. Despite increasing scholarly attention to the discourses of AI, there are limited insights on how different groups interpret and debate AI and shape its opportunities for action. We consider AI an issue field understood as a contested phenomenon where heterogeneous actors assert and debate the meanings and consequences of AI…

  • Leading digital transformation

    Open AccessJeppe Agger Nielsen, Kasper Elmholdt et al.ARTICLEPublic Administration Review2023Cited by: 11References: 19

    Change communication is a critical dimension for leading digital transformation. Existing literature predominantly theorizes change communication as part of the earliest stages of the transformation, but how it evolves over time to remain relevant in this context is understudied. We address this shortcoming through a four‐year study of a digital transformation initiative in a local government's health care department. Drawing on a narrative persp…

  • Algorithmic constructions of risk

    Open AccessHelene Ratner, Kasper ElmholdtARTICLEBig Data & Society2023Cited by: 2References: 28

    This paper examines how predictive algorithms construct risk by calculating and anticipating children's uncertain futures. Theoretically, we analyze algorithmic risk construction by attending to (a) the problematizations justifying algorithmic prediction, (b) their underpinning data infrastructures, and (c) the configurations of agencies across humans and machines. Empirically, we examine two experiments in Danish child protection services that d…

  • The organization’s synaptic mode of existence

    Open AccessNicolas Bencherki, Kasper ElmholdtARTICLEOrganization2022

    Different perspectives on organizations have alternatively sorted them on the side of the social / human / linguistic or that of the material / non-human / technical, reducing the question of what an organization may be to attempts to (re)connect these two realms. Literature adopting a relational view, however, has offered a way out of this opposition, by embracing the multiplicity of beings that may make up organizations. We extend this approach…

  • Counting sleep

    Open AccessKasper Elmholdt, Claus Elmholdt et al.ARTICLEOrganization2021

    Existing perspectives on normative and aspirational control have undertheorised how digital technologies such as digital self-tracking might alter what kinds of control is possible in the workplace. This article remedies this lack by studying the affordances of digital self-tracking in the workplace. Empirically, we draw on a case study of digital sleeptracking in relation to a well-being initiative in a private energy company, Encorp. Our analys…
