Temporality and Institutional Logics in a Case of Organisational Digital Transformation

The role of time and temporality has been an essential element in management and organisation research. However, it has always been looked at in a solely objective manner, and its other side, i.e., the subjective side, which might affect many organisational processes, has been neglected. Recent research on time has shown an increased interest in exploring this mysterious aspect of time, which has remained unexplored for so long. Current researchers in the field are trying to unpack and explore this aspect of time through various lenses. This research utilises in particular an institutional logics lens to explore how different temporalities coexist and interplay in organisations undergoing digital transformation and institutional complexity. Results of this research provided important insights about how seriously time and temporality in organisations should be taken and its relation to institutional logics, especially when contested logics exist within an organisation.
