Full Description
This thoroughly revised second edition provides an updated guide to reflexivity and reflexive practice, explaining its relevance to research in management, organisation studies and the social sciences. This new edition incorporates crucial analysis, case studies and Paul Hibbert's personal experience to explain how reflexive practice encompasses bodily, emotional, thoughtful and relational insights.
Drawing on a range of doctoral and collaborative case studies, Hibbert demonstrates how reflexive practice is central to authentic and resonant research. Each updated chapter presents opportunities for personal learning, growth and development in research processes, including dialogue points to encourage the reader to form their own opinions. Its all-new chapter connects insights on diversity with reflexive practice, outlining how a wide range of perspectives can help inform, shape and situate research. The book also explores avenues for future study and concludes that reflexive practice is more than a research skill: it is central to a scholarly way of life.
This book is a crucial resource for scholars and students of social sciences and business and management, particularly those interested in the latest developments in qualitative and interpretive research.
