Narrative Networks: Patterns of Technology and Organization (2007, background): “Rather, there are multiple, different boundaries that depend on the point of view of the observer (Pentland 2003, Pentland and Feldman 2005).”
Toward a Theory of Coordinating: Creating Coordinating Mechanisms in Practice (2012, positive): “Thus, the theory of organizational routines as generative systems (Feldman & Pentland, 2003; Pentland & Feldman, 2005), based in practice theories, provides a conceptual apparatus for analyzing how coordinating mechanisms are constituted as they are enacted.”
Beyond Collective Entities: Multilevel Research on Organizational Routines and Capabilities (2011, background): “…by early contributors to the Carnegie School (Cyert & March, 1963; March & Simon, 1958) and later extended by scholars working in this tradition (Gavetti, 2005; Gavetti & Levinthal, 2000; Gavetti et al., 2007) and related traditions (Feldman & Pentland, 2003; Pentland & Feldman, 2005, 2008).”
Transferring Knowledge to Acquisition Joint Ventures: An Organizational Unlearning Perspective (2008, background): “The latter are artifacts that deliberately attempt to codify the routine (Pentland and Feldman, 2005).”
Beyond Routines as Things: Introduction to the Special Issue on Routine Dynamics (2016, background): “Enacting routines entails materiality (D’Adderio 2008, 2011; Pentland and Feldman 2005).”
A framework for applying organizational routines in empirical research: linking antecedents, characteristics and performance outcomes of recurrent interaction patterns (2005, background): “Other authors, too, have insisted that, more often than not, rules are not determinist ( Pentland and Feldman, 2005 ).”
Designing routines: On the folly of designing artifacts, while hoping for patterns of action (2008, background): “1, the ostensive and performative aspects of routines are recursively related while the artifacts are distinct from the routine as constituted through this recursive relationship (Pentland & Feldman, 2005).”
