Research

My research is in the intersection between business administration and informatics. The overall theme in my research is change processes, supported or enabled by information and communication technology (ICT). A special interest is the interaction between intentions and ideas behind technical systems, and the context where the technology is intended to be used. This implies that my research to a large extent has been focused to analyze organizations and industries in order to understand, and to some degree predict what will happen when new technologies or innovation are introduced into an organization or industry.
