Humorous Organizing

Viac o knihe

Humor at work plays a crucial role in shaping organizational culture, contrary to its often trivial perception. Through two ethnographic studies—a year-long observation of a hotel kitchen and a three-year study of a private boarding school—the book explores how organizational interactions create and sustain structures over time. It emphasizes a communication-focused approach to understanding the complexities of workplace dynamics and contributions to the structuration process. This insightful analysis is aimed at students and researchers in management, sociology, and communication studies.
