From Sisters to CEO's: Defining Organizational Rhetoric in a Case Study of Social Sorority Bylaws

Rood, Paige 01 January 2015 (has links)
Organizational Rhetoric is typically used in the fields of Communication and Mass Communication to examine the communicative strategies that animate businesses and corporate organizations. This study aims to give a more rhetorically focused definition of organizational rhetoric by emphasizing how communicative acts structure action and shape the construction of identity in settings beyond formal workplaces. Based on an analysis of the social sorority bylaws of Kappa Alpha Theta and the rhetorical situations those bylaws address, this study suggests that social sororities employ organizational rhetoric as an effective means of persuading their members to be active participants within the organization. Ultimately, the analysis argues that the rhetoric employed by social sororities mimics the typified, effective rhetorical moves of an organization to shape the agency and identities of their members.

An Exploration of Black National Pan-Hellenic Council (NPHC) Sorority Membership as it Relates to Academic Achievement and Civic Engagement

Eatman, Canela 09 November 2017 (has links)
The purpose of the study was to explore the experience of 13 Black, National Pan-Hellenic Council (NPHC) sorority members as they relate to their academic achievement and civic engagement. Participants were female, upperclassmen students at four different Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), half private and the other public. Criterion, purposive, and snowball sampling were used to secure participants. Using the Community of Practice as a theoretical framework, which is comprised of five stages, participants’ experiences were described, analyzed, and interpreted to inform the study. Data were collected through individual phone interviews, using a semi-structured interview protocol, and were analyzed using inductive analysis. Four themes emerged from the inductive analysis and those themes derived subthemes: (a) Support- (1) academic support, (2) financial support, and (3) engaging and influence; (b) Academic Intention- (1) understanding academic achievement before sorority membership, and (2) understanding academic achievement after sorority membership; (c) Service- (a) civic engagement, (b) volunteering, and (c) filling a need; lastly, (d) Social Awareness- (a) personal service goals, (b) personal social responsibility, and (c) understanding civic engagement agents. The study provided implications for practitioners in higher education, such as the need to understand the historical significance, to advise these groups in a comprehensive manner, to conduct further research on the experiences of graduate chapter members caused by life experiences, and to identify sorority interests prior to membership for optimal outcomes. The study findings have implications for future support, research, and resources offered in helping these women navigate both student life and sorority membership. It is recommended that future researchers continue to examine the experiences of Black, NPHC sorority women, in order to inform higher education practitioners to better assist with their growth and development.

Sister Act: Understanding Sorority Women's Communication About Condom Use

Hernandez, Rachael A. 2010 August 1900 (has links)
Young women‘s sexual health is declining. Sorority women face an intersectionality of risk for the negative consequences of sexual activity because of college attendance, sex, and age. The influence of peer communication about condom use can provide a buffer to the risk these women face. I investigated this communication through focus groups, using the theory of communication privacy management and grounded theory to understand focus group findings. The results revealed themes regarding characteristics of communicators and context of communication including communication topic and setting. The women use strategies, boundaries and rules to negotiate communication privacy and engage in comfortable communication. Additionally, the women seek to maintain a good reputation for their social group, and follow explicit and implicit rules to do so. The implication of this analysis includes improvements in sorority and college student sexual health programming and continued research on communication in social support organizations like sororities.

Saberes das mulheres veterenas na economia solidária : sororidade a outra educação!

Alves, Simone Silva January 2014 (has links)
Este estudo tem como objetivo compreender como os saberes das mulheres veteranas na rede de economia solidária, se constroem e podem ou não trazer elementos para se pensar outra proposta de ensinar, aprender, criar e produzir, outra(s) sociabilidade(s) e outro(s) modo(s) de viver e ser no coletivo social. Entendemos que o processo educativo não acontece deslocado da construção da cidade, da cultura, das identidades, do trabalho, dos tempos e espaço de socialização. A natureza da pesquisa foi qualiquantitativa. A pesquisa de representação social deve ser qualitantitativa, porque as opiniões coletivas apresentam, ao mesmo tempo, uma dimensão qualitativa e uma quantitativa. Dados qualitativos e quantitativos não estão em oposição, pelo contrário, entre eles há uma oposição complementar, agregar o que a pesquisa qualitativa tem de positivo às virtudes da pesquisa quantitativa é oferecer riqueza de informações, aprofundamento e maior fidedignidade interpretativa.Para a coleta de dados empíricos realizamos observação participante e entrevista semiestruturada. O trabalho de campo foi realizado na segunda edição do Fórum Social e Feira Mundial de Economia Solidária ocorrida nos dias 11 a 14 de julho de 2013, na cidade de Santa Maria no Estado do Rio Grande do Sul – Brasil. Participaram da pesquisa seis mulheres veteranas de cada região do Brasil. As regiões pesquisadas foram Sul, Norte, Nordeste, Sudeste e Centro Oeste. Para a escolha dos critérios dos sujeitos da pesquisa demos como centralidade às mulheres que tinham mais experiência de trabalho artesanal. As informações foram analisadas e interpretadas à luz da perspectiva histórica crítica tendo como base de interpretação metodológica o Discurso do Sujeito Coletivo, por meio de contribuições teóricas marxianas. Para compreendermos essa realidade nos fundamentamos em autores como MARX, MAUSS, ARENDT, BRUSCHINI, CATTANI, MESZÁROS, FREIRE, BEAUVOIR, SIMMEL, CAILLÉ, LAVILLE, TRIVIÑOS, ABRAMO, ALAMBERT, ANTUNES, FRIGOTTO, GOHN, LEFEVRE & LEFEVRE, LOURO, KERGOAT, HIRATA, FREITAG, entre outros. Identificamos que, o trabalho das mulheres nas redes de economia solidária tem uma expressão não só produtiva, mas essencialmente educativa, pois tem em sua base um compromisso político e ético, que incide no reconhecimento do outro como produtor de diferentes saberes. A categoria fundamental de nossa pesquisa é a sororidade que é o pacto entre as mulheres que se reconhecem como próximas fisicamente e afetivamente. Desse modo, a sororidade é um dos conceitos básicos de uma proposta educativa que junto com a cooperação almeja a superação e resistência à institucionalização da exclusão e da pobreza proposta pela lógica do capital. / This study aims to comprehend how the knowledge of senior women in the solidarity economy net builds and may bring elements to think another approach to teach, learn, create and produce other sociability (ies) and other way(s) to live and to be in the social collective. It is understood that educative process does not happen displaced from the city construction, the culture, the identities, the work and the time and place of socialization. This research was cuali-quantitative type. The social representation research must be cuali-quantitative because the collective opinions present, at the same time, a qualitative and quantitative dimension. Qualitative and quantitative data are not in opposition, on the contrary, between them there is a complementary opposition, it aggregates what the qualitative research has as positive to the quantitative data, offering a richness of information, deepness and a better trustworthiness on the interpretation. To collect the empirical data it was done participant observation, a semi structured interview and the field work was done in the second edition of Social Forum and World Fair of Solidarity Economy held in Santa Maria- RS - Brazil from 11 to 14 of July in 2013. It was participant six senior women from each region of Brazil, the regions researched were South, North, Northeast, Southeast and Center West. As a criterion of choice to gather the subjects researched, it was elected the women with more experience in handcraft work. The information were analyzed and interpreted in the light of the historical and critical perspective based on the methodological interpretation of the discourse of the collective subject, regarding theoretical Marxian contributions. To understand this reality we based on authors such as: MARX, MAUSS, ARENDT, BRUSCHINI, CATTANI, MESZÁROS, FREIRE, BEAUVOIR, SIMMEL, CAILLÉ, LAVILLE, TRIVIÑOS, ABRAMO, ALAMBERT, ANTUNES, FRIGOTTO, GOHN, LEFEVRE & LEFEVRE, LOURO, KERGOAT, HIRATA, FREITAG, among others. It was identified that the work of women in the solidarity economy net has an expression that is not just productive, but essentially educative, because it permeates in its roots an ethical compromise, which concerns in the other’s recognition as a producer of different knowledge. The main analyses category in this study is sorority that is a pact among women that recognize themselves as physically and affectively close. This way, sorority is a basic concept of an educative proposal that joined with cooperation and self-management aims to overcome and be resistant to the institutionalization of exclusion and poverty proposed by the capital logic.
