Abstract

An increasing number of management articles have focused on embodied ethnography in terms of either understanding other bodies at work or how our own bodies as researchers inform knowledge. In advancing this latter approach, we argue for an embodiment that sensually intoxicates our bodies, enabling new forms of learning to emerge. To grow this understanding, we draw on Maurice Merleau-Ponty’s concept ‘le schéma corporel’, a shared physiognomy of the senses. This concept informs a corporeal methodology which details three organisational depictions that emerge from a season long immersion in a professional rugby team. We illustrate how the Will was corporeally apprenticed in this setting through an understanding of the body as situated, emotional and physical. The article concludes by suggesting it is the researcher’s own body that is the site of learning, providing a sense to the reader of the pain, touch and sound of professional rugby.

感官陶醉:从组织民族志中的身体学习

越来越多的管理学文章关注于具体的民族志，从理解工作中的其他身体或作为研究人员的我们自己的身体如何传递知识的角度来看。在推进后一种方法的过程中，我们论证了一种体现，它使我们的身体在感官上陶醉，从而使新的学习形式得以出现。为了加深这种理解，我们借鉴了莫里斯·梅洛-庞蒂(Maurice merlo - ponty)的概念“le sch ma corporel”，这是一种共享的感官面相。这个概念告诉了一个具体的方法，详细描述了三个组织描述，这些描述来自于一个职业橄榄球队的一个赛季。我们通过理解身体的位置，情感和物质，来说明意志是如何在这种情况下成为肉体学徒的。这篇文章的结论是，研究人员自己的身体才是学习的场所，为读者提供了一种职业橄榄球的疼痛、触摸和声音的感觉。
