This book presents the seven entrepreneurial activities (SEA) model of new organizational constitution, a prescriptive extension of the four flows model tradition of communication constitution of organizations (CCO) theory
This book explains the SEA model in detail, illustrating it with autobiographical accounts from Deanna Bisel's years of experience as an entrepreneur
The volume explores how entrepreneurial efforts to create and maintain organizations involve interrelated activities
The book offers a vision of new organizational creation and maintenance as (a) communicative and material, (b) initiated by value propositions, (c) difficult to achieve, (d) having periods of partiality, (e) being the result of constitutive leadership distributed among members, and (f) dependent upon constitutive momentum generated in organizational learning
