Abstract: The book ‘Identity in Organizations: Building Theory Through Conversations,’ edited by David A. Whetten and Paul C. Godfrey, is a useful and interesting foray into one community's conversation about identity and identifications and organizations. The book is organized into three different parts, each engaging ideas of identity from a different perspective. In Part I the authors look at what organizational identity means, trying to approach it from a more traditional macro-organizational theory perspective. Part II authors discuss identity in light of the question of what identity implies for strategy. Finally, in Part III of the book, the authors wrestle with the question of how people identify with organizations.
