This lively guide showcasing original and carefully curated research illustrates the dynamic relationship between discourse and organizational psychology. It maps the origins and development of discursive approaches in the field of organizational psychology and provides a timely review of the challenges that may confront researchers in the years to come, thereby charting the current and future boundaries of the field.A Guide to Discursive Organizational Psychology delineates a potential research agenda for discursive organizational psychology. Contributions include empirically rich discussions of both traditional and widely studied topics such as resistance to change, inclusion and exclusion, participation, multi-stakeholder collaboration and diversity management, as well as newer research topics such as language negotiations, work time arrangements, technology development and discourse as intervention. Discursive devices for addressing these phenomena include interpretive repertoires, modes of ordering, rhetorical strategies and sense-making narratives.This timely book will serve as a guide for students or researchers who are new to discourse analysis in the field of organization and management studies, and provide new perspective to anyone seeking to enhance their conceptual and methodological understanding of the field.

'Discursive approaches to issues such as creativity and participation are well established in management and organization studies but are much less developed in the field of Organizational Psychology. This book fills this gap in a timely and informative manner, providing much needed insights into how language does not simply represent the social world, but actively produces it. This book illustrates how the "turn to language" in the social sciences can be usefully applied to the field of Organizational Psychology.'
