Joint Directed Action

Joint Directed Action (JDA) is a continuous pursuit of all actors with a common goal, target or objective to continuously align their actions, individual and/or collaborative with this specific goal.
Joint Directed Action describes how individual and/or collaborative actions continuously can become aligned through an attentiveness of how sensemaking and action is an intertwined two-way process. Mauléon (2009) illustrates this two-way process through the lens of a relational-interpretive perspective which is based upon conceptual pragmatism (C.I. Lewis, 1929) and relational theories (e.g. Bahktin (1986), Vygotsky (1986), Shotter (2002), Gergen (2007), Cunliffe (2001))
Joint Directed Action was first described in the doctoral thesis Getting' it Together In Joint Directed Action (2009) by Christina Mauléon.
