Leadership and work engagement: Exploring explanatory mechanisms (2020, background): “Especially, communication behaviors are likely shared across all leaders characterized by one or the other leadership style, since research indicates that leaders spend most of their time communicating (in)directly with employees (Wajcman and Rose, 2011).”
The Autonomy Paradox: The Implications of Mobile Email Devices for Knowledge Professionals (2013, neutral): “A similar oversight is evident in the research on communication technologies where — with a few exceptions (Barley et al. 2011; Wajcman and Rose 2011) — most of the research pays attention solely to the communicative or symbolic aspects of the technologies in use.”
The technostress trifecta ‐ techno eustress, techno distress and design: Theoretical directions and an agenda for research (2019, background): “…is not directly contributing or speaking, by working simultaneously on other IS‐mediated tasks (Ohly & Latour, 2014), use of IS to engage in back and forth between different types of communications and interactions during the course of the workday to accomplish various tasks (Wajcman & Rose, 2011).”
