“Breaking Up Is Hard To Do”: Hierarchy and Networking in Carlux

Alison Pullen

Chapter 5 in Managing Identity, 2006, pp 68-111 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The Management in Three Movements model developed in Chapter 3 was based on the characteristics of organizational and social shifts from the modern to postmodern introducing the dynamic dualistic movement of hierarchy to networking, accountability to seduction and achievement to commitment as a frame for researching managerial subjectivities. This model has been used as the basic framework to be interrogated by the data and, simultaneously, the lens through which the data were interrogated. In this chapter I explore how and why middle managers draw on the duality of hierarchy and networking to shape and constitute their subjectivities in Carlux.
