Organization as Time: Technology, Power and Politics

Francois-Xavier de Vaujany is Professor of Organization Studies at Universite Paris Dauphine-PSL (DRM). His research deals with the relationship between new ways of organizing work and societal transformations, particularly its time and space dimensions. His latest publications are Apocalypse manageriale (Belles Lettres, 2022) and the co-edited Oxford Handbook of Phenomenologies and Organization Studies (Oxford University Press, 2022). Robin Holt is Professor of Strategy and Aesthetics at the University of Bristol Business School and a visiting professor at Copenhagen Business School. He studies the nature of organizational form, with a specific interest in the aesthetic process of its creation (entrepreneurship) and shaping (strategy). Robin works at the intersection of management and organization studies, media theory, politics and philosophy. Albane Grandazzi has been Assistant Professor at Grenoble Ecole de Management (GEM) since 2020. Her research is based on an ethnographic and critical approach to organization and management studies. She is interested in the role of the body in new work practices, building on the work of the philosopher Merleau-Ponty to this end. Her last publication, The Oxford Handbook of Phenomenologies and Organization Studies (Oxford University Press, 2022) is related to the role of gestures in this process.
