Companies are organised to fulfil two distinctive functions: efficient and resilient exploitation of current business and parallel exploration of new possibilities. For the latter, companies require strong organisational infrastructure such as team compositions and functional structures to ensure exploration remains effective. This paper explores the potential for designing organisational infrastructure to be part of fourth order subject matter. In particular, it explores how organisational infrastructure could be designed in the context of an exploratory unit, operating in a large heritage airline. This paper leverages insights from a long-term action research project and finds that building trust and shared frames are crucial to designing infrastructure that affords the greater explorative agenda of an organisation. https://doi.org/10.33114/adim.2019.07.227 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/christine-de-lille-8039372/

The world of electric mobility and charging infrastructure has accelerated in recent years: from a start-up to a mature market. During the last decade, researchers at Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences have contributed to making the rollout and use of charging infrastructure smarter. By analysing data, simulating future scenarios, testing in practice and developing the necessary hardware, a step towards a mature market has been taken.In this book, we give you insight into this research, focusing on the last five years in which the Future Charging research project took place. We wish you a lot of reading pleasure and inspiration in order to jointly take the next step towards a zero-impact world through mobility.
