Artificial intelligence in the workplace

Artificial intelligence is playing an increasingly important role in the workplace. From scenarios in which autonomous, learning role agents develop products and services, to decision-substituting AI that relieves employees of actual decision-making, to generative AI, there are numerous applications that influence a wealth of areas in the organization (e.g., management of future skills, autonomous processes and structures). At the Chair of Management, People, and Information (Prof. Dr. Marina Fiedler), we have intensively investigated how AI influences employee identity, what unintended consequences of AI in the organization may arise from its use, how to enable transparency in AI models using XAI, and how AI principles influence organizational identity. It turns out that decision-substituting AI can have empowering effects on less experienced and low-skilled employees. On the one hand, this technology enables them to be provided with better tools and resources to perform their tasks more efficiently. On the other hand, AI can also have a debilitating effect on experienced, well-trained employees by challenging their identities. Among the unexpected consequences we identified is that well-trained employees in particular challenge decision-substituting AI and often do not easily accept the outcome. These findings indicate both that employees do not want to be constrained by decision-substituting AI and that these unintended consequences require that the use and adaptation of these systems be carefully monitored. To better understand the results produced by AI and make informed decisions, we rely on Explainable AI (XA). XAI technologies make it possible to shed light on the decision-making processes of AI systems and make their conclusions understandable. We are looking at how these systems can be deployed so that the information generated by AI is trustworthy and enables employees to make better decisions. For the integration of AI into the organization to be effective for all stakeholders, clear guidelines and principles need to be developed. These principles help manage organizational identity and ensure that AI supports organizational values and goals through ethically responsible AI use. Example publications on this field include:

Understanding sustainable behavior and promoting with information systems

How can organizations promote the environmentally friendly behavior of their employees in the workplace? This project, funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG) and others, addresses this question by specifically investigating the potential of information systems (IS) to increase the motivation of environmentally friendly behavior in the workplace. The project examines the numerous interactions between competing institutional logics, psychological dynamics, and motivational affordances from a socio-technical perspective. As such, the project makes theoretical contributions in the areas of business informatics and organizational behavior. Exemplary publications include:

The Future of Work - Platforms between Efficiency and Exploitation

New web-based platforms such as MTurk, Clickworker, Freelancer, and Upwork are increasingly providing work opportunities. From small writing and translation services, to logo and graphic design, to complex IT projects, these platforms are increasingly shaping the everyday working lives of millions of people worldwide. But what does this mean for contractors and how is work being changed overall as a result? The associated research projects investigate the effects and framework conditions of platform work on the motivation and perception of contractors and the emerging trade-off relationship with conventional employment relationships. At the same time, virtually traded jobs are detached from fixed physical work locations and predefined groups of colleagues. In this context, platforms offer great potential for self-determined work, the creation of personal holding environments, and extensive integration of disadvantaged groups of employees who are given few opportunities in conventional organizations. The research provides new insights into motivation in virtual work, mutual development among crowdworkers, and more inclusive work organization. For practitioners, a better understanding of work on platforms is gained to facilitate targeted use and more efficient regulation. The goal is both to improve the work experience of contractors and at the same time to facilitate the use of this virtual and efficient work organization for organizations.

The interplay between employees and organization

In times of work intensification and the need for efficiency, satisfaction, willingness to change and conscious management practices such as mindfulness are increasingly coming into focus. We examine the relationships between employees, organizations, and management. Examining these connections provides valuable insights into how organizations design their structures and practices to promote employee well-being, productivity, and overall success.

Virtual worlds and metaverse for research use in social phenomena such as trust, trustworthiness, bubble formation, monitoring, and social distance

Virtual worlds and the concept of metaverse open up new possibilities for research and practice. These technologies provide a unique environment to conduct social experiments and behavioral studies at low cost. At the Department of Management, People, and Information, we are interested in how communication and monitoring in virtual space affects trust and trustworthiness; what impact this has on reducing social distance and whether behaviors such as bubble formation, known from the physical world, can also be observed in virtual worlds.
