Description

Research specifically exploring the abductive process of knowledge building in DSR remains elusive. Using organizational mindfulness (OM) as the base kernel theory, this research explores the creation of an IS artefact to evaluate system enabled decision making by strategic teams in dynamic environments. The paper provides an exploration of a learning methodology to approach design science research (DSR) using two techniques, design drift and reflective conversation. The notion of drifting was proposed by Fricke (1972) for use in engineering design, and further developed by (Cross, 1999) as an approach in design research to aid in maturing the partially structured design artefact. This paper explore design praxeology, or the study of practices and processes of design to present a case for the use of the two techniques.
