In Search of Regained Time? Autism and Organizational [A]temporality in the Light of Humanistic Management

Résumé

This paper investigates the relationship that high functioning autistic people have with organizational temporality by considering this operationalization within the framework of humanistic management. To do so, it proposes an analysis based on 7 propositions. Autism is a disorder that is still poorly understood and often linked to social depictions that are as unfounded as they are repulsive. It remains an unexplored area of study in the field of management sciences. Existing scholarship has established that people with an autism spectrum disorder (ASD) have great difficulty finding and retaining employment. While it is well known that people on the spectrum have weak social skills, the difficulties they experience in relation to time have only been studied in medical research, even though organizational temporality substantially shapes the functioning of teams. The operationalization of autistic temporality as a particular temporality within humanistic management allows for the development of a new conceptual framework based on a consideration of lesser-known and invisible disabilities. This paper begins with a presentation of the theoretic al background. It then develops our theoretical model. Implications, limitations and directions for further study are discussed before concluding.
