The worthy human being as prosuming subject : ‘Projectified selves’ in emancipatory project studies
- 2020

Ingår i: Project Management Journal. - : SAGE Publications. - 8756-9728 .- 1938-9507. ; 51:4, s. 367-377

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The projectified self is suggested in this article as a way to advance emancipatory project studies toward improved understandings of how individuals in contemporary neoliberal societies are urged to become self-controlling, self-improving, self-commercializing, life-compartmentalizing, and deadline driven. We propose (1) a developed theoretical foundation for studies of the projectified self, based on recent writings on enterprising selves, and (2) the notion of prosumption as a concept for how the worthiness of this projectified self is constructed in a simultaneous process of project-based production and consumption. This is discussed in relation to the on-going studies of social media entrepreneurs.

Negotiating meritocracy and gender equality across organisational spaces : the case of a tenure track system
- 2024
-
Ingår i: Higher Education. - : Springer Nature. - 0018-1560 .- 1573-174X.
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- In this article, we study how meritocratic systems and gender equality concerns are negotiated across different organisational spaces in Higher Education Institutions (HEIs). Based on a case study of the organising of a tenure track system in a Swedish university, we suggest that the intersection of meritocratic processes and gender equality work can be analysed as a set of negotiated orders in these spaces. This fragmentation may imply problems for advancing gender equality agendas in relation to established notions of meritocracy but may also imply opportunities for change as existing organisational spaces can be reconstructed or new ones created. Our notions of fragmentation and negotiated orders thereby suggest that the current situation is both stable and legitimate and that re-negotiations need to involve reconstructions of the various spaces and not only interventions into them.

Omgiven av instrumentalister : Har det akademiska medborgarskapet gått förlorat?
- 2020. - 1
-
Ingår i: <em>Ledning och (sned-)styrning i högskolan</em>. - Lund : Studentlitteratur AB. ; , s. 187-217
-
Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- I denna text diskuterar vi tendensen mot en ökad instrumentalism i ledning och utövning av akademisk verksamhet i det svenska högskolesystemet. Med instrumentalism avses en inställning till akademiskt arbete som bygger på individualism, konkurrens, prestationsmätning, kortsiktigt nyttoskapande och formell regelstyrning. Instrumentalismen är en konsekvens av de ökade ambitionerna att styra och effektivisera högskolan, men riskerar – om den får gå för långt – att i stället erodera högskolans kapacitet att leverera det som önskas. Den instrumentella styrningen är sällan sammanhållen eller långsiktig, och den driver fram en akademisk kultur där de anställda fokuserar på sina individuella karriärer och på att på papperet leverera mot diverse prestationsmått. Den bidrar också till en ledningskultur där regelverk, mätsystem och detaljstyrning står i fokus snarare än gemensamt ansvarstagande, kvalitetsutveckling och byggande av tillitsfulla arbetsmiljöer som stödjer kunskapsintensivt arbete. I förlängningen hotas inte bara kvaliteten utan även det akademiska arbetets attraktivitet och högskolans roll som särpräglad samhällsinstitution. Vi föreslår ett alternativt förhållningssätt – akademiskt medborgarskap – och ger exempel på hur akademins chefer kan arbeta med att stödja detta i vardagsarbetet, i termer av relationsdrivande, ansvarsdrivande och kvalitetsdrivande ledarskap.

Men in focus : Exploring homosocial cultures in organizations and developing methods to prevent sexual harassment
- 2021
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The program explores homosocial cultures in male-dominated organizations in order to contribute to our understanding of the dynamics of sexual harrassment and to develop measures and methods for transforming homosocial cultures into spaces where men in different positions can act as change agents in order to promote gender equality and workplaces free from violence and discrimination. This answers to recent calls for deepened understanding of processes by which sexual harassment is normalized and tolerated in organizational contexts and for improved prevention measures and methods (e.g. Chawla et al. 2021). By focusing on men and masculinities in relation to aspects of organizational cultures that enable men to exercise violence in order to maintain control in organizations, and by developing measures and methods for counteracting SH through organizational development, the program contributes to current research frontiers as well as to the development of new practices in organizational change management.
