Book Reviews of Making Sense of the Organization (KeyWorks in Cultural Studies)
Book Review: An excellent collection of Weick's articles
Summary: 5 Stars
Karl Weick is an oustanding scholar of organizations, and this collection of many of his articles from the last two decades details his contribution. His focus in many of them is inter-subjective sensemaking in organizations, and he often chooses situations where sensemaking breaks down to illustrate significant truths about organizational processes.Even if you have read many of these papers before this is a must-buy - to see his work collected together, and to read the man himself locating the papers in their context.
