David Seidl brings together two important issues in organization and management studies in this volume: the concept and related theory of organizational identity, and autopoietic organization theory (as originally developed by Niklas Luhmann). The contribution of the book is twofold: it provides an introduction to autopoietic organization theory and it provides a new perspective on organizational identity and self-transformation. Thus the book is relevant to both organization theorists interested in new approaches to organization and to researchers of organizational identity. The themes are reflected in the structure of the book. Chapters one and two provide an introduction to Niklas Luhmann's organization theory. Based on this, chapter three develops a new concept of organizational identity. In chapters four and five a theory of organizational self-transformation (i.e. change of identity) is developed.

Over the last two decades, Routine Dynamics has emerged as an international research community that shares a particular approach to organizational phenomena. At the heart of this approach is an interest in examining the emergence, reproduction, replication and change of routines as recognizable patterns of actions. In contrast to other research communities interested in those phenomena, Routine Dynamics studies are informed by a distinctive set of theories (especially practice theory and related process-informed theories). This Handbook offers both an accessible introduction to core concepts and approaches in Routine Dynamics as well as a comprehensive and authoritative overview of research in different areas of Routine Dynamics. The chapters of this Handbook are structured around four core themes: 1) Theoretical resources for research on the dynamics of routines, 2) Methodological issues in studying the dynamics routines, 3) Themes in Routine Dynamics research and 4) Relation of Routine Dynamics to other communities of thought.

Now in its second edition, this extended and thoroughly updated handbook introduces researchers and students to the growing range of theoretical and methodological perspectives being developed in the vibrant field of strategy as practice. With new authors and additional chapters, it shows how the strategy as practice approach in strategic management moves away from disembodied and asocial studies of firm assets, technologies and practices to explore and explain the contribution that strategizing makes to people working at all levels of an organization. It breaks down many of the traditional paradigmatic barriers in strategy to investigate who the strategists are, what they do, how they do it, and what the consequences or outcomes of their actions are. This essential work summarizes recent developments in the field while presenting a clear agenda for future research.

Der in diesem Buch vorgestellte Ansatz gibt einen Einblick in die Nutzung der sozialen Netzwerkanalyse in Unternehmen. Anhand zahlreicher Fallbeispiele zeigen die Autoren, wie ein systematisches Verfahren zur Erfassung, Bewertung und Steuerung unternehmensinterner sozialer Netzwerke erfolgreich eingesetzt werden kann. Ein solches Verfahren kann auf unterschiedliche Themen- und Problemstellungen wie beispielsweise Prozessanalyse, Post-Merger-Integration, Einfuhrung neuer Produkte und Dienstleistungen, team- und abteilungsubergreifende Kommunikation und Zusammenarbeit, Kostenoptimierung, Wissenstransfer oder Integration neuer Mitarbeiter angewandt werden. Das Verfahren wird so dargestellt, dass es fur Manager und Berater gut nachvollziehbar und auf eigene Problemfelder anwendbar ist."
