Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This paper presents the concept of worldview and its relevance to business programs, and offers an assessment rubric for evaluating the extent to which travel/study courses used to internationalize the business curriculum are successful at developing students' worldview. Results from a pilot application of the rubric for program-related assessment using papers from three "international practicum"; experiences are presented, and we note ways in which student essays reflect development of worldview as a learning outcome of the experience.

Arguing for design thinking interventions as artistic interventions
- 2013
-
Ingår i: Design Research Journal. - 2000-3080. ; 2009:2, s. 40-47
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Drawing on data from projects where artists used their artistic competence as organizational change facilitators, this paper argues for a theoretical coupling of the discourse(s) of design thinking to research streams within art-and-management. The artistic dimension of design, the practice perspective and the artistic process should be considered if we are to understand the full potential of design thinking for companies.

Curatorial practice in artistic interventions in organizations: Insights from Swedish practitioners

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- In this paper we discuss the role of the facilitator of artistic and design interventions in companies. We regard design interventions and artistic interventions as similar activities; they are both related to the companies’ innovation work and they both rely upon an artistic framework in their work process. Our focus is on the “facilitator role” and how it is performed in three different organizations that produce/mediate artistic interventions. The facilitator tries to bridge the gap between differences in what is taken-for-granted by companies and artists, respectively. However, the role of the facilitator is vague, and differs considerably between organizations. For a fresh perspective on the facilitator role we contrast it with the role of the curator. This role is far from homogeneous, but is well developed both practically and theoretically. We propose that such a comparison would be beneficial for the artist, the facilitator, and the organizations involved.

Design Thinking: Past, Present and Possible Futures

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This paper takes a critical look at the design thinking discourse, one that has different meanings depending on its context. Within the managerial realm, design thinking has been described as the best way to be creative and innovate, while within the design realm, design thinking may be partly ignored and taken for granted, despite a long history of academic development and debate. In the design area, we find five different discourses of ‘designerly thinking’, or ways to describe what designers do in practice, that have distinctly different epistemological roots. These different discourses do not stand in competition with each other but could be developed in parallel. We also observe that the management discourse has three distinct origins, but in general has a more superficial and popular character and is less academically anchored than the designerly one. Also, the management design thinking discourse seldom refers to designerly thinking and thereby hinders cumulative knowledge construction. We suggest further research to link the discourses.

Mind the gap! Strategies for artistic interventions in organizations

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- As part of efforts to increase innovation, artistic interventions with similarities to design thinking interventions have become increasingly popular. An important aspect of an artistic intervention is the facilitation or bridging process that links the organization, the artist or designer, and the target group. This process is at the core of the relationship, essential for avoiding frustrations and frictions that easily emerge in the communication processes between the different worlds or logics of the artist (artistic logic) and the target group (economic logic), and for ensuring that the “tools gained” continue to be used in the organization after the artist has left. We present a study of three Swedish facilitating organizations with different processes, SVID (www.svid.se). TILLT (www.tillt.se), and SKISS (www.konstfrämjandet.se/projekt/skiss). Our research included interviews with representatives of the different organizations. We discovered that while the processes are similar in their intentions and ways of dealing with issues that arose within the target group, they differ foremost in the time and conditions offered to the artists/designers. We discuss the resources required for the different approaches and reflect on implications for new producers of artistic innovations.
