SUMMARY:WEBINAR: Bringing companies and researchers together for workplace innovation – Action Research in practice
DESCRIPTION:\n					\n						Bringing companies and researchers together for workplace innovation – Action Research in practice\n\n					\n				\n					\n						\nThis webinar is part of the EUWIN and Bridges 5.0 programme of events. \n\n\n					\n				\n					\n						DISCOVER THE FULL PROGRAMME AND BOOK YOUR PLACE\n\n					\n				\n					\n						It is a well-known fact that many businesses struggle to get the solutions developed in various projects into use and implemented. Action research meets this challenge in that development\, testing and implementation go hand in hand in a co-created learning process. \nIn Norway\, action research as a research strategy was introduced and adopted early on through the Industrial Democracy project in the 60s\, where companies and trade unions tested new work forms with the aim of increasing efficiency in parallel with improving working conditions. The organizational psychologist Kurt Lewin has been given the honour of coining action research as a research tradition. Subsequently\, action research as a philosophy and through methodological choices has developed in different directions\, where various choices have been emphasized differently. \n\n\n					\n				\n					\n						In this presentation\, we will rely on a pragmatic approach to action research as described and developed by\, among others\, Davydd Greenwood and Morten Levin. Through dialogue and reflection\, presentation of new research and theoretical perspectives and testing in the various organisations\, the researchers and the participants (problem owners) develop a common learning community with the aim of developing knew practice as well as new theory. \n\n\n					\n				\n					\n						Hanne Finnestrand is an Associate Professor in Organizational Theory at the Department of Industrial Economics and Technology Management. She has a major in Organizational Sociology from 2003 and a PhD in Organizational Development and Action Research from 2011. \nFrom 2003-2016 she worked as a Research Scientist\, and later Senior Research Scientist\, at SINTEF Technology and Society\, Technology Management. As a commissioned researcher\, she has collaborated closely with company managers\, shop stewards and employees in several (primarily manufacturing) companies over several years. \nTheoretically\, she positions herself within Socio-Technical Systems Theory (STS) and Action Research. She is the co-founder of STS Kompetansenettverk and cooperate with the international STS network\, Global Network for SMARt organization design. \nShe is also Editor-in-Chief of the journal\, Systemic Practice and Action Research (Springer). \n\n\n					\n				\n					\n						\n\n\nSpeakers\n\n\n\n\n\n					\n				\n					\n						\n\n					\n				\n					\n						Hanne Finnestrand\, PhD\nNorwegian University of Science and Technology – NTNU \n\n\n					\n				\n					\n						DISCOVER THE FULL PROGRAMME AND BOOK YOUR PLACE\n\n					\n				\n					\n						EUWIN (the European Workplace Innovation Network) is a community of researchers and practitioners from business\, public policy\, research and social partner organisations.
