Imperfections-as-Practice: Projects as Becoming Processes of Imperfections [PDF]
Project Management Journal, 2023 This article provides an alternative conceptualization of a project as a series of becoming processes of imperfections. Through a longitudinal ethnography of a Research and Innovation Project, our study uncovers that imperfections emerged as uncertainty, ambiguity, unknown, and emergence over time. These emerging imperfections enacted project managers
