By removing time from theoretical accounts, variance theorizing abstracts away from the temporal flow of much of organizational life. The temporal structure of social practices and the uncertainty and urgencies that are inherently involved in them are passed over in the search for empirical regularities and contingency models of explanation. The particulars that make knowledge actionable what to do, at what point in time, in what context—are not included in the timeless propositional statements typically generated in variance theorizing (Sandberg & Tsoukas, 2011: 342).
