Abstract: | This study surveys large-scale management presentations such as annual general meetings, press conferences, and analyst meetings "as performance". Employing the latest theatre theory and presenting a tool for performance analysis, the study explains the aesthetic experience and illustrates the complex interplay of scenography, lighting, clothing, managers' performance style, rhetoric, and audience interaction, indicating that these organizational events are co-created and argued theatrical performances. |
