presentation
posted on 2023-06-08, 23:55 authored by Rebecca Whiting, Helen Roby, Petros Chamakiotis, Gillian Symon, Chee Siang Ang, Ming Ki Chong, Jon Whittle, Umar RashidIn this paper, we focus on examining how digital technologies affect our ability to manage rapid transitions (‘switches’) across work life boundaries, particularly in settings where working can take place anytime, anywhere. Using an innovative combination of research methods (video diaries and narrative interviews) with a group of social entrepreneurs, we show in a series of video extracts the complexity of these every day and ongoing transitions. We give examples of different types of switches and consider the benefits and challenges that digital technologies raise for this transition process.
