Dr. Frode Ramstad Johansen is an associate professor in innovation processes at the Engineering Department of Østfold University College.

Lectures and supervise at bachelor and masters level primarily in innovation, digitalization and project leadership. Examines at bachelor's and master's level both internally and externally. Develops interdisciplinary collaboration through student activities such as Innocamp with nursing and innovation students for new health solutions, innovation for bioengineering students to rethink practices, and interdisciplinary project on social innovation with innovation students and labor and welfare students.

His supervision emphasizes action and process perspectives, it's intensive and helping students navigate their project through the flow of new knowledge, connections and tasks.

Recently, he researches in the EU project FREIIA and the EEA project FETREC on how collective organisation of sustainable innovation processes can strengthen development. Island communities acts as pilots in both projects, with a focus on circular solutions and young entrepreneurship. The framework for the projects is the green shift and the dilemma with the digital society that should benefit island communities, while island communities are experiencing depopulation, particularly of young people. The project is part of the research group Innovation.

With a background in studying uncertain and emerging innovation processes, he focuses on the actors' capacity for action within these contexts. Specifically, he explores the interactions between actors and artifacts, including the impact of digital transformation and the green shift, that lead to an action net. His research aims to understand the connections that enable collaboration, facilitating the development of improved work processes that strengthen both work life and sustainability.

In recent years, his work has contributed to better collective work processes, aiding organisations and local communities in creating improved and more sustainable solutions. Dr. Johansen's approach emphasizes action and process perspectives, offering insights into emerging processes and helping actors navigate through them effectively. He holds a PhD in innovation processes from Aalborg University.

Dr. Johansen is lead of the Trustworthy AI-lab at Østfold University College, intending to encourage debate and reflection on the responsible use of Artificial Intelligence. The lab is acting as a meeting place for the international community, such as the Z-Inspection® assessment method for Trustworthy AI and its affiliated labs globally. Trustworthy AI Lab at the university, Dr. Johansen is engaged locally and internationally in assessments of the reliability of AI solutions and the ethical considerations surrounding their implementation by organisations.

Further, he leads the research group Interdisciplinary Exploration and Development of Teaching which works with systematic exploration and development of teaching and pedagogical practice. The group seeks to strengthen interdisciplinary cooperation, pedagogical experimentation and testing, and increased research activity to improve teaching quality.

Lastly, he is international coordinator for the Department of Engineering, promoting and assisting with the inbound and outbound exchange of students and staff at the department. Cooperates with the International Team at the faculty level to promote activities for internationalization and establish arenas for international collaboration.

The major challenges confronting humanity are systemic in nature: climate change, pollution, poverty, and inequality. Entrepreneurship fails to tackle these challenges, and ‘creative destruction’ is mostly just leading to the destruction of the natural world that we inhabit. The present economic, financial, and productive systems can and should be transformed to lead and power a shift towards sustainability. If we are to reverse the course of destruction that current capitalist systems are creating, we need to introduce more of a systems perspective into entrepreneurial education. This article addresses how merging systems thinking and entrepreneurship can be used to nudge students towards sustainability. Through a single case study, we argue that a practice-based pedagogy that combines perspectives from entrepreneurship and systems thinking can be used as a catalyst to bring about local changes in business models by making the business case go beyond the individual organization and seeing entrepreneurship as being about creating more sustainable business systems.

The aim of government cluster programmes is to create clusters that strengthen businesses competitive edge and generate local development. Recent research, however, identifies missing elements regarding agency in existing path dependency explanations of the way in which clusters develop. In an alternative explanation, path creation emphases the distinction between agency and structure as ‘flattened’, and action-net emphases organising as an ongoing activity with only temporary stable implementations. This is explored in an analysis of a funded cluster project in the making, through varying and complex innovative processes, from 2006 until 2016. The findings show clustering as a path development process with knowledgeable actors mindfully framing opportunities and artefacts creating opportunities, and to be not as unambiguous and well-defined as expressed in traditional analyses, that have an outside perspective and focusing on structure and actors. Cluster projects and programmes potential lie in framework, tools and methods, more than in the financing.

This study explores the way in which industry, start-ups, students, researchers and public bodies reflect and argue regarding their own engagement in a Living lab. The aim is to create a focus on collaborative capabilities and to contribute to the understanding of how novel sharing economy trends (Bouncken & Reuschl, 2018) like coworking impacts workplaces, innovation and work-integrated learning. Coworking redefine collaboration capability as a competitive advantage (Allred, Fawcett, Wallin, & Magnan, 2011). Coworking takes on the challenges of sharing equipment, ideas, and knowledge both within and between individuals and organizations. Coworking is challenging more traditional approaches to organizing and is actualized in Coworking spaces, living labs and maker spaces. Actor-network theory based models are employed, unfolding coworking as it is revealed in interviews with representatives of participating tourism industry, students, researchers and public bodies. In the project researchers interview individuals linked to coworking. This model introduces concepts, relations and mechanisms, describing a current state discourse of meaning, membership and predictable behavior that shape and are shaped by facts, artifacts and relations, and how disturbance and other factors push the system toward some new future state discourse. The analysis are based on probabilistic topic models that produce networks of words based on the interviews. This is a mathematical model that identify groups or communities of words that are related and that may illustrate the themes in the interviews. These networks are used to characterize the discourses of coworking found in the material. The outcome describes the devlopment of discourses of coworking among the participants. We will use these discourses for discussing collaborative capabilities and how it impacts university-society collaboration. We will also present an online dashboard for further exporation of the material for the reader.

This paper describes and analyzes the implementing processes of industrial democracy and efficiency in 2 sampled business companies in South Norway. The analysis is based on action research (AR) related document studies, surveys, interviews and observations on the employees from these companies. The study emphasizes on collaboration between employers and employees, and the employees? understanding and implementing of industrial democracy into their daily work and the real outcomes of the implementations. Both sampled companies are project members of Value Creation 2010 (Verdiskaping 2010), which is an action research based project implemented industrial democracy into the local business companies. The analysis indicates employees? same expectations and wishes on industrial democracy, but differences on their practices, used tools and situations. One best practice has been noticed as implementing cross-personnel teams, named as Resource Groups (RG) in a sampled company and received particularly positive benefits. This RG approach has nevertheless similar nature and functions as quality circles in TQM practice early 80s, but RG concept rather focuses on organizational development than merely quality issues.
