The Time and Space of Materiality in Organizations and the Natural Environment (2013, background): “The time and space attributes of physical objects, at a nonquantum level, are generally incontrovertible—most observers can agree on the point in time and space that physical objects occupy (Ancona, Okhuysen, & Perlow, 2001; Butler, 1995; Orlikowski & Yates, 2002).”
Leaders, followers, and time (2008, methodology): “Here, we will refer to it as clock time, as is often done in the literature (e.g., Clark, 1985; Orlikowski & Yates, 2002).”
Modeling students' time management in math homework (2014, background): “Over the last two decades, there has been a growing interest in time management in the organizational literature (Claessens, van Eerde, Rutte, & Roe, 2007; Orlikowski & Yates, 2002) and in the literature onmotivation and self-regulated learning (Pintrich, 2004; Schunk, 2005; Zimmerman, 2008).”

The Business Communicator as Presence Allocator: Multicommunicating, Equivocality, and Status at Work (2007, background): “A new technology can influence the way in which workers understand and use time (Orlikowski & Yates, 2002) and, in the case of chat, seems to be changing the ways in which people communicate (Cameron & Webster, 2005; Turner & Tinsley, 2002).”
The “Other” Time: A Review of the Subjective Experience of Time in Organizations (2020, background): “4 Yet as scholars, we have tended to separate the two types of time as if they are distinct or even contradictory (Orlikowski & Yates, 2002).”
Strategic Application of Storytelling in Organizations (2010, background): “…expectations for the availability and immediacy of goods and services because of the advantages of using technology in worldwide business ventures (Orlikowski & Yates, 2002), thereby imposing time constraints that deter members from having or allowing the time needed to network and build…”
A review of the time management literature (2007, background): “According to Orlikowsky and Yates (2002), the temporal dimension of work has become more important because of expanding global competition and increased demands for immediate availability of products and services.”
Managing Multiple Roles: Work-Family Policies and Individuals' Desires for Segmentation (2005, background): “organizations as defined by Orlikowski and Yates (2002, p. 686) , who explain that “ �� by following office schedules or academic calendars, we restrict our activities to certain times or days.” This temporal restructuring is intended to remove overlap in work and nonwork activities (Kossek et al.”
Emotional timescapes: the temporal perspective and consumption emotions in services (2015, background): “As Czarniawska (2004, p. 775) put it: “Whereas Chronos measures time in mechanical intervals, Kairos jumps and slows down, omits long periods and dwells on others.””
WHEN AND HOW TEAM LEADERS MATTER (2004, background): “…of research findings on temporal aspects of group behavior, much of which bears directly on team leader decision-making about coaching interventions (see for example,Ancona & Chong, 1999; Gersick, 1988; Ginnett, 1993; McGrath & Tschan, 2004; Moreland & Levine, 1988; Orlikowski & Yates, 2002).”
Coping with Problems of Understanding in Interorganizational Relationships: Using Formalization as a Means to Make Sense (2006, background): “…organizationally dispersed group of artificial intelligence language designers, which treated each release of a formal manual ‘as an event initiating discussion of perceived gaps or problems and further proposals and agreements, which in turn led to the next draft’ (Orlikowski and Yates 2002: 692).”
Explaining Discontinuity in Organizational Learning: A Process Analysis (2010, background): “Organization members face multiple temporal structures (Orlikowski and Yates 2002).”
