Description
Summary:Management and organization research has much to gain in taking inspiration from the arts, culture and humanities, not only in rethinking its practices, but also to nourish its own perspectives. Life in organizations is artificially separate from ordinary life: all mundane objects are conducive to astonishment, inspiration, and even problematization. The Unplugged subsection "Voices" gives academics and non-academics the opportunity to deliver an interpretation of an object from the cultural or artistic world. The objects chosen for interpretation may or may not be directly related to organizational life, may or may not resonate with the moment, but do share some intriguing features. These interpretations form a patchwork of variations on the same object.
