Critical analysis of grounded theory strategy in organisational and management research

Abstract: PurposeAlthough grounded theory (GT) was introduced in 1967, GT remains widely misunderstood as scholars incorporate a limited spectrum of the GT techniques and fail to integrate GT's full potential into academic research. The purpose of this article is, therefore, to discuss divergences between four GT strategies and by doing so to provide criteria for making an informed choice between one GT approach or another.Design/methodology/approachThe study offers a comparative analysis of four GT approaches by relyin… Show more

“…An inductive approach to data analysis informed by grounded theory (Franken and Plimmer, 2019) was therefore used. Of the various approaches to grounded theory (Koleva, 2023), this study is closer to Charmaz's (2006) approach of "social reality [as] multiple, processual and constructed." (p. 264).…”

“…An inductive approach to data analysis informed by grounded theory (Franken and Plimmer, 2019) was therefore used. Of the various approaches to grounded theory (Koleva, 2023), this study is closer to Charmaz’s (2006) approach of “social reality [as] multiple, processual and constructed.” (p. 264). Hence, the data analysis process was bracketed by two literature reviews, and characterized by consistent memoing to guide iterative linking between data and theory (Koleva, 2023).…”

“…Examining an abstract concept such as religion that holds divergent meanings for different actors (Koleva, 2021) can be difficult; it is, therefore, essential to examine the symbolic interactions of the participants living the phenomenon (Corley, 2015; Walker et al, 2012) and the emerging social constructs associated with it (Koleva, 2023; Koleva & Ocler, 2018), especially when it comes to their reflections on organisational practices (van Buren III et al, 2020). Hence, the study employed an exploratory research design (De Vaus, 2001) presented in Figure 1, as well as a Grounded Theory (GT) approach and abductive reasoning (Peirce, 1935) in order to conduct an in‐depth investigation of the symbolic interactions of the actors with Islam from the viewpoint of key stakeholders involved in the phenomenon implementation at a micro‐level, and the respective reflections that these symbolic interactions could have in terms of the construction of CSR as an organisational/meso‐level phenomenon (Charmaz, 2005; Corley, 2015; Peattie & Samuel, 2018; Walker et al, 2012).…”
