Résumé : |
Writing about a large, qualitative inquiry, whether in a dissertation, a book or a scientific article, raises a number of specific issues. This article explores the issues related to the building of the narrative(s) that will give an account of the research. The range of options for structuring this account (i.e. writing about the data and/or the findings) is much wider than in the case of a quantitative research ; moreover, the chosen narrative structure is in itself a way of conveying the meaning intended by the writer and has to be determined in this light. In this article, the proposed solutions to this issue should be taken as inspiring ideas rather than as ready-to-use recipes. These sources of inspiration have deliberately been drawn from fields that are foreign to business and management studies, fields in which these writing issues are crucial. Examples will be built from fiction writing, investigative journalism, documentary photography, and comics ; and we will discuss their transposition or adaptation to business and management research inquiries. With these sources of inspiration and the resulting suggestions, we invite authors to free themselves, at least partially, from the too easily accepted norms of scientific writing, so that they can make the best out of their research findings and contributions. |
