Captain Kirk narrates at the beginning of every episode “Space: the final frontier. These are the voyages of the starship Enterprise. Its five-year mission: to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations, to boldly go where no man has gone before. " Later, in the 6th episode the mission statement is changed to “Where no one has gone before”

Although several examples are well described in the literature, the VO domain still needs clarification in terms of VO types and characteristics. This paper aims at exploring different designs of VOs by investigating structural patterns of 30 VOs. The authors develop an analysis framework, the Virtual Profile, which allows profiling each case along structural dimensions. The analysis shows that, in practice, most of the VOs are based on prior relationships of collaborators with a strong focus on core competencies that intend to cooperate on a long-term basis. Apart from these common characteristics, structural differences between two types of VOs are identified. The resulting typology of two main types – “emerged ” (internally driven) and “initiated” (externally driven) VOs- contributes to an explanation of VO types in literature as wel...

Die soziale und interaktive Herstellung von Geschlecht versteht sich demnach kontextspezifisch, also innerhalb von Organisationen, in denen bestimmte – unausgeglichene und oft strukturell Mehrheitsgruppen unterstutzende – Machtverhaltnisse bereits angelegt sind. In dem vorliegenden Beitrag befassen wir uns mit der Frage, wie soziales Geschlecht und Professionalitat sowie damit verbundene Rollenerwartungen an Fuhrungskrafte konstruiert und welche Ein- und Ausschliesungspraktiken dabei bedient werden. Methodologisch beziehen wir uns auf GOFFMANs Rahmenanalyse und untersuchen eine Mikrosituation aus dem organisationalen Alltag eines IT-Unternehmens. Die detaillierte Analyse einer im Kontext eines Assessment Centers erhobenen Beobachtungssequenz l...

It addresses the question how the interrelation of organizational structures and individual biographies leads to the drop-out of females during their PhD. Moreover, it contributes to the understanding of how these drop-outs are embedded in gendered organizational structures and processes. A case study approach is applied in order to gain a deeper understanding of the crucial mentor–mentee relationship at this career stage. The detailed reconstruction of narrative biographies shows how a young female researcher faces too many restrictions and too much freedom at the same time. Results revealed how the female junior is highly dependent on the male senior and that specific assignments of how and with whom to work impact her career development. At the same time, the evaluation of the junior’s work is based on the stereotypical picture of an autonomous scientist who produces excellent re...

Vorliegender Beitrag unternimmt eine erste Bestandsaufnahme rekonstruktiver biographischer Forschung in Osterreich. Er zeichnet den historischen Verlauf institutioneller Verankerungen seit den 1980er Jahren nach, skizziert aktuelle Forschungsfelder und verweist auf die Weiterentwicklungen eines sich theoretisch und methodisch interdisziplinar verstehenden Zugangs.
