{"product_id":"secrecy-at-work-christopher-grey-9780804798143","title":"Secrecy at Work: The Hidden Architecture of Organizational Life","description":"\u003cp\u003eSecrecy is endemic within organizations, woven into the fabric of our lives at work. Yet, until now, we've had an all-too-limited understanding of this powerful organizational force. Secrecy is a part of work, and keeping secrets is a form of work. But also, secrecy creates a social order--a hidden architecture within our organizations. Drawing on previously overlooked texts, as well as well-known classics, Jana Costas and Christopher Grey identify three forms of secrecy: formal secrecy, as we see in the case of trade and state secrets based on law and regulation; informal secrecy based on networks and trust; and public or open secrecy, where what is known goes undiscussed. Animated with evocative examples from scholarship, current events, and works of fiction, this framework presents a bold reimagining of organizational life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Christopher Grey, Jana Costas\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0804798141\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780804798143\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Stanford Business Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/30\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 216\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.00w x 0.80d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/01\/2016","brand":"Christopher Grey","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43947224006911,"sku":"9780804798143","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_5ad73fe7-14c6-4bcc-aafb-cedc973413fd.jpg?v=1681517458","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/secrecy-at-work-christopher-grey-9780804798143","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
