‘Company-selfies’ Boundary Negotiating Artefacts in Group Discussions on Innovation
Note:
Paper nominated to The Knut Holt Award
Publication Type:
Conference/Workshop Paper
Venue:
The XXVI ISPIM Innovation Conference
Abstract
In this paper, one practice-oriented approach to incorporate nonexperts
in early stages of innovation work is presented and analysed: the
method of photo-based group discussions on innovation. The result is based on
studies in 7 different organizations during 2013-2014. The method was
developed as a response to a current innovation management problem in
manufacturing companies in mid-Sweden, i.e. the problem how to enable all
employees to use their talent and potential in relation to innovation initiatives
on all levels. The results show how the photographs were used by the
participants to negotiate different interpretations of innovation. The
photographs were used for self-reflection, borrowing, inclusion and
denominating actions. The results contribute to the theoretical understanding in
the innovation management community of photographs in innovation
processes. It does so by the introduction of the notion 'company-selfie' and the
analyse of the photograph as a boundary negotiation artefact in groupdiscussion
on innovation.
