Between episodes of strategy: Sociomateriality, sensemaking, and dysfunction in a scenario planning process
研究了多组织情景规划过程中，工作坊之间发生的微妙变化和干预如何影响意义建构，导致正常结构与规划过程逐渐融合并产生功能失调。
Scenario planning processes, which occur over multiple episodes, facilitate the development of alternative stories of the future in order to challenge current thinking and help organizations create more robust strategies. But what happens between those episodes and how does it affect the process? Utilizing a sociomaterial perspective, we examine sensemaking within and between multiple scenario planning workshops of a multi-organization strategy process. We observe both subtle changes and more blatant interventions in the production of critical materials in the spaces between workshops. Sociomateriality and sensemaking become entangled as the inputs to, and outputs from, workshops are subject to increased influence from ‘normal’ work structures as episodic and continuous sensemaking converge gradually over time.
