In a time of flexible and mutable work arrangements, there is
hardly a domain of organizing that has not been affected by
liminality. Temporary workers who switch companies based on
projects, consultants who operate at the boundaries between the
consultant and the client companies, or 'hybrid entrepreneurs' who
start new ventures, while still keeping their previous job, are
examples of liminality in organizations. Liminality is also felt by
managers who handle interorganizational relationships within
customer-supplier networks or scientists who, albeit affiliated
with R&D units, have strong ties with their scientific
communities, acknowledging that they belong to neither setting
thoroughly. Precious hints for enriching our comprehension of
liminality in organizational settings can be conveyed by the
reflection that has flourished in different fields. This book
advances knowledge of liminality management by elaborating on a
model that puts together aspects of the liminal process that have
been mostly described in a separate way so far, benefiting from the
input provided by experience in sociology, medicine, and education.
Through the articulation of a model that accounts for the
antecedents, content, and consequences of liminality in
organizations, the book intends to prompt quantitative research on
this topic. It will be of value to those interested in
organizational behavior, organization and management, marketing,
sociology of work, and sociology of organizations.
