Abstract

This chapter investigates the professional identity of managers in meeting interaction. It shows that identity is related to the actions being carried out and to the style of communicating. More specifically, the analysis deals with how managers give feedback to their co-workers in reporting sequences in management meetings. It shows that in giving feedback the managers ascribe to themselves and their interlocutors various organizational and personal characteristics that are constitutive of their professional identity and consequential for their form of interaction.
