The affordances of technology and strategic roadmapping: An exploration of its instrumental, symbolic, and political functions
Scholars agree that the roadmapping process and product both have multiple benefits for organizations in terms of strategic planning and coordination of strategic activities. However, the social and organizational aspects surrounding strategic and technological roadmapping are still poorly understood. By mobilizing the literature on strategic tools-in-use, and the theory of affordances, this paper explores the practical affordances of roadmapping. Our results, based on a longitudinal study of the development and dissemination of a roadmap within Hydro-Québec, show that the roadmapping process and product fulfill three main types of function: instrumental, symbolic, and political. We also find that the coordination and alignment benefits are highly dependent on the political affordances of the tools that individuals anticipate in the conduct and dissemination of roadmapping.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Engineering and Technology Management (JET-M) is an international scholarly refereed research journal which aims to promote the theory and practice of technology, innovation, and engineering management.
The journal links engineering, science, and management disciplines. It addresses the issues involved in the planning, development, and implementation of technological capabilities to shape and accomplish the strategic and operational objectives of an organization. It covers not only R&D management, but also the entire spectrum of managerial concerns in technology-based organizations. This includes issues relating to new product development, human resource management, innovation process management, project management, technological fusion, marketing, technological forecasting and strategic planning.
The journal provides an interface between technology and other corporate functions, such as R&D, marketing, manufacturing and administration. Its ultimate goal is to make a profound contribution to theory development, research and practice by serving as a leading forum for the publication of scholarly research on all aspects of technology, innovation, and engineering management.
