This book presents a new way of understanding organizational
ethnography due to its strong emphasis on what the word
organizational means in organizational ethnography. In the past
five years, a new organizational studies research field has
developed involving organizational ethnographies, which is when
organizations are studied using ethnographical methods. This
development has shed light on the methods and difficulties of
organizational ethnography, and yet we argue that confusion still
remains as to what organizational ethnographical approaches are.
This edited volume offers students and scholars a profound
understanding of organizational ethnography by presenting concrete
examples, reflections and discussions of how to understand and
adequately conceptualize the word organizational in organizational
ethnography. All the chapters illustrate the work of analytically
combining different organizational phenomena (e.g. strategy making,
policymaking), analytical perspectives (e.g. sensemaking,
narratives) and ethnographical methods (e.g. texts, observations,
shadowing, interviews) and demonstrate different ways of doing
organizational ethnography. At the end of each chapter, an
experienced researcher in the field offers comments and discussion
on the contributions of the chapter, providing reflections on the
implications for research in the field to which they ascribe. In
Doing Organizational Ethnography, organizational is defined as
polyphonic ways of organizing based on the interactions of the many
voices, discourses, practices and narratives in and around
organizations and the book provides readers with in-depth
reflections on what organizing and organizations become when doing
organizational ethnography.
