Yet in the existing literature, there is relatively little attention to how project delivery professionals engage members of an organisation to co-create value. Building on research on stakeholders and organisational boundaries, an empirical study of the renewal of a large Finnish hospital is used to develop new insight into value co-creation between temporary and permanent forms of organisation. In this hospital case study, we find a framing <em>ideology</em> that supports value co-creation is provided by the project practitioners’ commitment to ‘service design’, and an <em>enquiry</em> that enrols organisational stakeholders’ participation and reveals temporal <em>tensions</em> at the temporary-permanent boundary. As the emergent temporal tensions are managed, ideas flow across the boundary and new artefacts and spaces are designed by the project team concurrently with, and are informed by, the implementation of new organisational processes. This study's contribution is to explain how project delivery professionals use ideology and enquiry to engage and co-create value with organisational participants.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48429,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Project Management","volume":"41 5","pages":"Article 102482"},"PeriodicalIF":8.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43418337","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We suggest identifying and addressing thematic issues shared across stakeholders. Regarding possible response strategies, the project in the case study surprisingly often refrained from responding to community stakeholder comments, foregoing the opportunity to engage with community stakeholders and acknowledging supportive comments.

We define symbolism as the aura of impressions, namely emotions, meanings and action propensities, emerging around a project and its various representations, as a result of largely incontrollable individual and social processes. We develop a process model that theorizes symbolism shaping by distinguishing two aspects. The first, expressing, captures the creation of representations that convey to stakeholders various aspects of the project and of its impacts, relying on either abstract or concrete vehicles. The second, impressing, captures how stakeholders process these representations by emphasizing either cognitive or affective mechanisms. Relying on the conjunction of the alternative paths for these subprocesses, we elaborate four types of megaproject symbolism and discuss their nature, the influence that stakeholders can exert over their shaping, and their consequences for various aspects of stakeholder engagement.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48429,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Project Management","volume":"41 5","pages":"Article 102498"},"PeriodicalIF":8.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48915356","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
