Leadership Discourse at Work

Employing a discourse analytical approach this book focuses on the under-researched strategy of humour to illustrate how discursive performances of leadership are influenced by gender and workplace culture. Far from being a superfluous strategy that distracts from business, humour performs a myriad of important functions in the workplace context.

Folosind o abordare analitica a discursului, aceasta carte se concentreaza pe strategia umorului insuficient cercetata pentru a ilustra modul in care performantele discursive ale leadershipului sunt influentate de gen si de cultura la locul de munca. Departe de a fi o strategie de prisos care distrage atentia de la afaceri, umorul indeplineste o multitudine de functii importante in contextul locului de munca.
