| Tiivistelmä: | Using the core competence approach, this article examines the consequences of linguistic ambiguity on the level of organizational usage. An in-depth case study of a German corporation is executed. Findings show that the term "ambiguity" itself has several meanings depending on the level of analysis. So, underneath a seeming consensus, a large variety of practices can hide. The findings urge management fashion scholars to pay more attention to the distributed and polyphonic character of organizations and the organizational nature of the "consumption" of ambiguous management knowledge. |
