Organizational communication focuses on how people interpret and employ
information, messages, images, data and knowledge to accomplish
personal and organizational objectives across diverse contexts,
including profit and not-for-profit sectors.
We apply a wide variety of
social and organization theories to study communication structures and
processes such as the evolution of knowledge networks within and across
organizations, uses of organizational information commons, deployment
of transactive memories, applications of organizational intranets,
strategic uses of information and communication resources, and the
emergence of new organizational populations.
Analysis is directed at
macro, mezzo and micro levels within the political, ethical and
cultural spheres of a globalizing society. Projects include studies in
organizational identity, multinational teams, trust in virtual
organization and cultural values in decision making, collaborating
and negotiation.
