| Abstract: | This essay offers a personal and therefore partial view of the nature and conduct of process research in organisational settings. Issues of time, agency, structure, context, emergence and development are crucial in human conduct and have been widely debated by philosophers and social theorists. The paper asks what is a process and what is a processional analysis? The attempts to answer these questions are then consolidated around five internally consistent assumptions guiding processual and contextual research. |
