Organizational Communication: Traditional Themes and New Directions (SAGE Series in Communication Research)

By Robert D. McPhee and Philip K. Tompkins

The authors of these nine chapters consider traditional themes and new research directions in the growing discipline of organizational communication. In contrast to much of the previous research on this topic, the authors share a field view of communication -- moving away from the traditional concern with observable behaviour or systems of behaviours and events. The result is a general theoretical shift away from a collection of empirical positions to studies that help describe the field in new and ingenious ways.
