This book shows how aesthetic understanding of organizations can
extend our knowledge and sharpen our insights into many processes
that shape organizational action. Organizational life is pervaded
by aesthetics, yet conventional organizational analysis has been
dominated by a `scientific', logico-rational tradition that ignores
the aesthetic dimension. The book highlights the role of emotion in
organizations, the importance of symbol, the subjective influence
of culture and the processes of learning and cognition. These
phenomena are related to the aesthetic rather than to purify
rational, demanding new modes of inquiry that allow us richer
insight into the dynamics of organizational life. Organization and
Aesthetics provides a powerful new lens through which the daily,
ever-chaning complexity of organizations can be better understood
by students, researchers and mangers.
