MAKING STRANGE KNOWLEDGE MORE INTELLIGIBLE

Abstract

This paper describes the origins and a few main “course corrections” as the author evolved his processual models and theories for explaining and predicting organizational behavior. Interest in aggregation problems and their solutions lead to the evolution of the processual approach. The paper emphasizes the need for being engaged with the phenomena. Being engaged, however, can have the consequence that the researcher co-evolves with the research.
