Interacting and Organizing - Analyses of a Management Meeting (Paperback)

This work provides an exceptional case study, shedding light onto the functioning of an actual corporate board of directors. It presents analysis of a series of corporate  management meetings shown in the 1974 documentary film, "Corporation: After Mr. Sam," The film chronicles the discussion and communication processes as a company considers how to replace its president, and it  serves as  a unique opportunity for analysis of real-world organizational discourse.
 
With an impressive list of prominent contributors, "Interacting and Organizing: Analyses of a Management Meeting" employs the dual perspectives of organizational communication and language and social interaction (LSI) to examine the film. It is arranged around specific topics, analyzed separately by organizational communication and LSI scholars. Editor Franois Cooren provides an introduction for each topic, and a comparison and synthesis conclude each part. Readers will appreciate the information presented, as it is an arena typically off-limits to outside eyes. The transcript of the film is included as an appendix to the volume.
 
This volume is appropriate for use in advanced courses and seminars in organizational communication, LSI, management, and organizational behavior. With its distinctive approach to studying the film's content, it will be invaluable to scholars, researchers, and graduate students in organizational communication, LSI, and management.
