Openness and decision making in the search for a university provost
This article chronicles a year‐long investigation into one university's search for a provost. Utilizing a communication approach to organizational decision making, we identify key elements in the search and selection process and explore them from multiple perspectives. Specifically, we employ Martin's (1992) typology of approaches to organisational culture to highlight three narrative views of the process as integrated, differentiated, and fragme…
Flirting with Meaning
Representational views of language and communication view ambiguity as a problem to be solved. An alternative approach treats ambiguity as an opportunity to challenge, skirt, and reinvent received knowledge and identity. In so doing, this approach makes a connection between epistemology and ontology, linguistic and existential meaning. This article describes this perspective on language and communication and offers three practical examples of how…

Conflict at Disneyland
This field study uses metaphor analysis to illuminate recent conflicts at Disneyland. A 30‐year change of emphasis of root‐metaphors from “drama”; to “family”; reflects fundamental differences in world‐view between management and employees. Recently, economic problems brought some of these differences to the surface, triggering a complex confrontation involving first‐ and second‐order issues. The implications of this confrontation for the future …

Ambiguity as strategy in organizational communication
This paper argues that while most teachers, researchers, and practitioners of organizational communication encourage clarity, a critical examination of communication processes in organizations reveals that clarity is both non‐normative and not a sensible standard against which to gauge individual or organizational effectiveness. People in organizations confront multiple situational requirements, develop multiple and often conflicting goals, and r…
Coorientation on Communication Rules in Managerial Dyads
This field study compared the effects of three dimensions of supervisor-subordinate coorientation regarding two communication rules (initiation and termination) on satisfaction with supervision and performance evaluations. For supervisors accuracy and perceived agreement on rules had positive effects on performance ratings of subordinates, even after controlling for frequency of contact. For subordinates, only perceived agreement on rules had an …
Involvement in Communication Networks as a Predictor of Organizational Commitment
This study examines the relationship between involvement in a job-related communication network and organizational commitment. The findings indicate a complex relationship that is moderated by the degree of job involvement. For employees who are not involved in their jobs, involvement in the job-related communication network functions to foster commitment to the organization. Two major conclusions are drawn: (1) the impact of involvement in commu…
