| Zusammenfassung: | "The question "Who am I?" represents one of the key challenges of contemporary life in a globalized world. For most of us, organizations play a key role in answering that question. In this insightful new book, Gregory S. Larson and Rebecca Gill explain how identities are formed, managed and regulated in the context of our interactions with organizations, and why identity has become so relevant in modern life. Their examination includes different frameworks for organizing and understanding identity scholarship, the nature of multiple identities and how these are managed, and the use of identity as a way of controlling workers. Organizations and Identity introduces an original discursive approach to the topic, highlighting what is unique and consequential about studying identity from a communication perspective. It is essential reading for students and scholars of organizational communication"-- Machine generated contents note: Contents Chapter 1: Introduction Chapter 2: Exploring Communicative Approaches to Identity and Organizations Chapter 3: Forming and Managing Identities Chapter 4: Fragmenting and Intersecting Identities Chapter 5: Regulating and Resisting Identities Chapter 6: Informing Key Organizational Processes through Discursive Approaches to Identity Chapter 7: Researching and Practicing Identity References |
