Summary of the lecure

Lena Hylving.
This lecture seeks to address the balancing act that comes with digitalization dynamics. Digitalization dynamics can be described as the dynamic interplay between the social (organization) and the material (technology), and how they jointly evolve in the digital era.
Lena Hylving will in her docent lecture focus on digitalization dynamics in organizations that she has studied since 2008. She will describe how these organizations balances different tensions and dilemmas in their continuous digitalization journey and the insights she has gained in her studies along with lessons learned from organizations who have been challenged by institutionalized structures.
