Writing about leadership
Writing...is socially constructive. Writing structures our relations with others and organizes our perceptions of the world...[allowing] professions [to] constitute themselves and carry out their work through texts.
Bazerman and Paradis, 2004
Writing plays a central role in profession-building. Texts "impose structure on human activity and help...shape...reality"

Writing is a "means of inducting or enrolling outsiders into" a discourse community "insider's views and commitments"

Writing can have an "operational force" in the world, when "expertise originating within... research processes is rhetorically transformed into broader terms of socially operative texts that guide human actions"
