The exploration of the role of the resistance of nonhuman actors within the framework of organisational change is an emerging research topic. This paper aims to deepen understanding of non-human actors' roles in resistance to change. Applying Actor-Network-Theory, we attempt to open the black box of the management device with a view to analysing the resistance of non-human actors. Reflecting Actor-Network Theory principles, the article is based on a longitudinal case study of the introduction of an employee driven innovation approach in a European telecoms company. We show that resistance to change on the part of non-human actors is linked to the inter-relations between human and non-human actors within the management device supporting employee driven innovation. We identify three types of resistance associated either with unthought or conceptually flawed aspects of managerial artefacts (non-human actors), or with system effects, when resistances within the management device combine to produce a multiplier effect. Furthermore, we demonstrate that while the resistance effects of non-human actors can be obstructive, they can also be productive in that they are capable of generating learning experiences. |
