Abstract

The spatial issue has traditionally played a role in organizational and management studies (Clegg & Kornberger, 2006). This chapter contributes to the recent growing interest of scholars in the relationship between spatial structure and organizational practices through the idea of “organizational space” (Hernes, 2004; Taylor & Spicer, 2007; Elsbach & Pratt, 2007; Van Marrewijk & Yanow, 2010; de Vaujany & Vaast, 2013).
