"Kassing convinces the reader that the question of
organizational dissent is of singular importance in the study of
organizational communication. The book provides an interesting
synthesis of the attitude research designed to tease out the
intricacies of dissent, and it is replete with the stories of some
of our most important dissenters."
Tim Hegstrom, San Jose State University
"Dissent in Organizations is an important book for
students, scholars, and indeed citizens in general. Kassing widens
and deepens our understanding of why and how dissent occurs in
organizations. Above all, this book helps to build an important
bridge between our understanding of what we do during a huge
proportion of the hours of our lives - that is, work - and our
common commitment to democratic practices."
George Cheney, University of Texas at Austin
"Dissent in Organizations is a ‘must read' if you
have ever made suggestions for change and been surprised at others'
reactions. The book provides an insightful and interesting
integration of research on dissent across multiple disciplines. It
is full of excellent examples that have immediate relevance to
managers and employees across all types of organizations."
Linn Van Dyne, Michigan State University
