Ethical design
Purpose This ethnographic case study explores how designers of a serious healthcare game internalise ethical challenges. Design/methodology/approach The analysis uses Jason Glynos’ post-Lacanian theory of ethics with its underpinning notions of fantasy, identification and detachment to interpret how designers wrestle with infantilisation (characterised here as overidentification with fantasy) insofar as it affects elderly people. Findings The res…
Past is prologue
Purpose The purpose of this article is twofold. Its first objective is to bring to the fore the unexplored and neglected origins of social exchange theory (SET) to critique this body of conjecture. This unearthing is illustrated through focusing on the way the theory was developed and how this development was mischaracterised in literature. Its second objective is to invoke the methodological assemblage of ANTi-History and the “close reading” not…
Clipping the wings of theorists
Mainstream as well as critical management history literature typically establishes theorists as the most consequential protagonists in the process that created the default blueprint for employee superintendence. Accordingly, in the wake of the Industrial Revolution, the new capitalists and their agents (the emerging management class), were theoretically ill-equipped to oversee large scale productive transformation. Hence, they turned to experts, …
Clustered Iconography
Development of graphical methods for representing data has not kept up with progress in statistical techniques. This article presents a brief history of graphical representations of research findings and makes the case for a revival of methods developed in the early and mid-twentieth century, notably ISOTYPE and Chernoff's faces. It resurrects and improves a procedure, clustered iconography, which enables the presentation of multidimensional data…
Forrest Gump’s Contribution to Research Methodology
When the fictional character Forrest Gump said: “Life is like a box of chocolates,” he offered an intriguing insight into at least one aspect of human existence. However, in creating his analogy he likely fell into a trap that sometimes ensnares social science researchers. For example, since the 1950s authors in disparate academic and professional genres have used metaphors/analogies to better understand organizational culture and create imagery …
The language of power and authority in leadership
English collocations
Collocations are a class of idiomatic expressions comprised of a sequence of words which, for mostly arbitrary reasons, occur together in a prescribed order. Collocations are not necessarily grammatical and/or cannot be generated through knowledge of rules or formulae. Therefore, they are often not easily mastered by EFL learners and typically only dealt with during the latter phase of second language apprenticeship. Literature has mostly examine…
Leaving the cocoon
Purpose – This article aims to ask how Michael Porter’s seminal notions of generic competitive strategy may be applied to an emerging university industry where course design and delivery is conceived of as able to be undertaken using distinctive modes. Design/methodology/approach – The study is principally a polemic piece. However, its method is to view course delivery modes as generic strategies and overlay these on Porter’s strategy grid. Each …
The Americanisation of Australian workplaces
Until the 1980s, employment relations in Australia had four features: compulsory arbitration; restricted immigration; a subsidised manufacturing sector; and, unions with high degrees of legitimacy and a successful representative political party. These elements made the Australian approach different from that of the USA where employment relations has been more influenced by free-market capitalism. Since the 1980s, Australia has been deregulating i…
Working at McDonalds
Within much critical research literature, fast-food jobs are presented as offering few employee advantages. Indeed the disparaging term 'McJob' has come to describe low-skill, low-pay, dead-end, routine service industry employment in general. In contrast, there is employer-oriented literature that portrays fast-food jobs more positively and even presents them as beneficial for the workforce. This study analyses survey data from a sample of Austra…
