Innovation Fellow Dr Luciana D’Adderio has published a chapter in the new book "Organizational Routines: Empirical Advances" edited by M.Becker and L. Lazaric and published by Edward Elgar. The book contains chapters by some of the key contributors to the international Routines debate including Michael Cohen, Richard Nelson and AIM International Visiting Fellow Brian Pentland. Luciana's chapter, titled "The Influence of Artefacts and Distributed Agencies on Routines' Dynamics: From Representation to Performation" draws from the emergent field of Performativity to theorise the mutual adaptation of formal practices and actual practice at an automotive manufacturer. The book will be of interest to anyone involved in the routines debate as well as those interested in organisational and management practices.
