Abstract
Thomas Greenfield, between the early 1970s and 1992, argued passionately for a theory of organizations that would begin with their social construction. Greenfield advised researchers to concentrate on the subjectively held meanings of those within organizations. In choosing to illustrate his own theory with persona from the discursive arts, he blends two axiological concerns-aesthetics and values. He accomplishes this boldly and dramatically through a "shock aesthetic" and, in an interdisciplinary vein, through bringing other ways of seeing to the field of educational administration. Greenfield's experiment in the art of inquiry also holds broad implications for the preparation of administrators.
