This course examines how ethnographic methods may be used to analyze information-based work practices and to design business/corporate systems to be sensitive to those who use them. Corporate culture is a highly distributed, infrastructural and rapidly changing entity that endows organizational action with its deepest significance. Corporate cultures must be studied by ethnographic methods of “thick description”. Grounded in this way, the course aims to help Learners develop the judgment necessary to design, test, and evaluate effective business systems of the future.
