Organizational altercasting: Developing impression management and cyber‐risk disclosures
Contemporary Accounting Research, EarlyView.Abstract The study develops theorizing of external organizational communications that entail impression management. This includes developing linkages to Goffman's work and a Goffmanian research tradition. Our approach innovatively articulates dimensions of impression management entailing the presentation of others and nuanced practices of what we term ...
