Presentation

Stig is a PhD Fellow at the Department of Digitalization. In his research, Stig draws on Michel Foucault’s concept of problematization to examine ethical concerns of algorithmic management practices. Stig blends archival research with workshops to explore the past and potential futures for self-tracking in the workplace. In particular, Stig is interested in uses of digital productivity assistants; an emerging class of digital applications that analyse employees’ digital data traces to nudge them towards healthier and more productive habits.


Stig holds a Master's Degree in Business Administration & Philosophy. His research is motivated by previous work experiences where Stig observed how workplace tracking initiatives affected his own and his colleagues motivation and attitude in paradoxical ways.
