Let's Discuss Aesthetics for Projects
Aesthetics is concerned with the knowledge and affects related to sensory experience and corporeality (the body) While there has been an increase in the literature based on non positivist foundations and focusing on the "lived experience" of projects, there remains a need to recognize aesthetic factors for example: dress, office layout, and body language in the project experience. Aesthetics enable us to access facets of the project experience that are beyond the rational and analytic. This article uses Heideggerian concepts to explore this "missing mass" in project management and proposes the need for further research and education in this area.
