The notion of the communicative constitution of organizations (CCO) is at the center of a growing theoretical development within organizational communication studies. CCO scholarship is based on the idea that organization emerges in and is sustained and transformed by communication. This entry presents CCO scholarship with regard to its historical origins, underlying premises, main schools of thought, key theoretical questions, methodological approaches, and critiques.
