%T Involvement as a dilemma: between dialogue and discussion in team based organizations %A Kristiansen, Marianne %A Bloch-Poulsen, Jørgen %J International Journal of Action Research %N 2 %P 163-197 %V 2 %D 2006 %@ 1861-1303 %~ Rainer Hampp Verlag %> https://nbn-resolving.org/urn:nbn:de:0168-ssoar-356431 %X "This article describes an ongoing action research project in a public administration department working towards a more flat structure characterized by value-based management, team organization, and involvement. The article presents involvement as a multidimensional dilemma and describes how employees experience and cope with traditional and modern dilemmas, and how the borderline between them seems to be blurred. It also includes the AR-dilemma unfolding in the relation between the participants and us as actions researchers. The dilemmas are discussed in relation to Human Resource Management. The history of involvement is reflected as a historical transformation of participative democracy into participative management characterized by strategic communication."
