  • The dialectics of spatial performances

    Open AccessAnu E Sivunen, Anu Sivunen et al.ARTICLEHuman Relations2020Citada por: 6Referências: 65

    Navigating organizational workspace is often plagued with tensions that emerge from the interplay of intended designs with organizational activities and lived experiences. These tensions are evident in research findings, such as inconsistencies in the ways that employees react to new workplace designs. They call on scholars to rethink organizational space, not as a concrete, static, or ready-made ‘thing’, but as a set of ongoing performances that…

  • The Politics of Emotion

    Dennis K Mumby, Linda L PutnamCHAPTERPostmodern Management Theory2019

    A feminist perspective on organizational theory exposes the male-centered, or patriarchal, worldview. By virtue of incorporating masculine systems as normal and rational, builders of extant theory produce and reproduce certain ways of understanding organizational life. A feminist reading of both concepts, bounded and rationality, opens up possibilities for alternative ways of organizing and for rewriting organizational theory. The implications of…

  • Constituting Order and Disorder

    Linda L PutnamCHAPTERDis/organization As Communication2019

    This chapter adopts a CCO lens to examine the salient triggers that activate the interplay of order and disorder as dialectical tensions. Four features-boundary work, struggle, meaning and context-emerge from the existing literature as forces through which communication constitutes (dis)order in the interplay of opposites. Boundary work and struggle enact order and disorder as separate processes that implicate each other and privilege one pole ov…

  • Contradictions, Dialectics, and Paradoxes in Organizations

    Linda L Putnam, Gail T Fairhurst et al.ARTICLEAcademy of Management Annals2016

    This article presents a constitutive approach to the study of organizational contradictions, dialectics, paradoxes, and tensions. In particular, it highlights five constitutive dimensions (i.e., discourse, developmental actions, socio-historical conditions, presence in multiples, and praxis) that appear across the literature in five metatheoretical traditions—process-based systems, structuration, critical, postmodern, and relational dialectics. I…

  • Beyond Morgan’s eight metaphors

    Open AccessAnders örtenblad, Linda L Putnam et al.ARTICLEHuman Relations2016Citada por: 8Referências: 24

    This introduction examines the contributions of articles in this special issue to organization theory, especially efforts to rethink or add to Morgan’s metaphors and to generate new organizational images. In general, the articles in this issue offer new metaphors and sub-metaphors and enrich specifications for two of Morgan’s images. Moreover, they address ways of rethinking Morgan’s images through developing meta-metaphors and comparing his imag…

  • Examining the tensions in workplace flexibility and exploring options for new directions

    Open AccessLinda L Putnam, Karen Kroman Myers et al.ARTICLEHuman Relations2014Citada por: 45Referências: 86

    Workplace flexibility initiatives as a potential remedy for work–life conflicts are the focus of a considerable number of investigations. Despite their contributions, research findings reveal tensions and contradictions in the ways that employees, managers and organizations develop, enact and respond to these flexibility initiatives. This critical review identifies three primary tensions (variable vs fixed arrangements, supportive vs unsupportive…

  • Reconsidering the Concept of Workplace Flexibility

    Karen Kroman Myers, Bernadette M Gailliard et al.ARTICLEAnnals of the International…2013Citada por: 1Referências: 19

    Flexibility is a key issue in organizational life, especially because organizations rely on work from remote locations and create policies to accommodate work-life balance. Most existing research examines workplace flexibility in primarily the individual or the organizational domain. Views of communication in these domains typically embrace transmission or transaction assumptions without concern for how organizational discourses shape the enactme…

  • Disentangling approaches to framing in conflict and negotiation research

    Open AccessArt Dewulf, Barbara Gray et al.ARTICLEHuman Relations2009Citada por: 94Referências: 85

    Divergent theoretical approaches to the construct of framing have resulted in conceptual confusion in conflict research. We disentangle these approaches by analyzing their assumptions about 1) the nature of frames — that is, cognitive representations or interactional co-constructions, and 2) what is getting framed — that is, issues, identities and relationships, or interaction process. Using a meta-paradigmatic perspective, we delineate the ontol…

  • Making Sense of Intractable Multiparty Conflict

    Boris H J M Brummans, Linda L Putnam et al.ARTICLECommunication Monographs2008Citada por: 26Referências: 30

    Intractable multiparty conflict is omnipresent in social life, but how do individuals in this type of dispute make sense of their situation and therefore enact it in a particular way? The current study investigated this question by examining how disputants from different stakeholder groups framed conflict situations in Ohio, Pennsylvania, Minnesota, and Texas that revolved around environmental issues. Qualitative and quantitative analyses of inte…

  • Alternative Perspectives on the Role of Text and Agency in Constituting Organizations

    Open AccessLinda L Putnam, François CoorenARTICLEOrganization2004

    Organizational discourse analysis, as an area of research, has grown in the past decade. Most scholars posit that language, regardless of the discursive form, is critical to the very nature of an organization. This article contends that discourse is more than an artifact or a reflection of an organization; rather it forms the foundation for organizing and for developing the notion oforganization as an entity. The articles in this volume present d…

  • Means to What End? Conflict Management Frames

    Barbara Gray, Linda L PutnamARTICLEEnvironmental Practice2003

    This article examines environmental disputants' conflict management frames—their preferred means of responding to conflict—and the impact of those frames on the conflict's intractability. Through case studies we illustrate the consequences of adopting certain conflict management frames, such as litigation, struggle/sabotage and violence, and avoidance, which tend to perpetuate conflicts. Four circumstances in our cases encouraged the adoption of …
