Abstract:This paper explores the paradoxical phenomenon of feeling close to geographically distant colleagues. A model of perceived proximity is proposed. It is aimed at broadening organizational studies' theoretical understandings of proximity to include the subjective perception of it. It is shown how communication and social identification processes and certain individual and socio-organizational factors affect feelings of proximity.
