Language started to become an area of interest for social scientists. For a long time it had been acknowledged as a medium to structure thoughts through the codes and grammar it generated (Saussure, 1959). This study, unlike most of current literature, uncovered the social aspects of language and its affect on power in organizations at times of radical change.

520 $a Language started to become an area of interest for social scientists. For a long time it had been acknowledged as a medium to structure thoughts through the codes and grammar it generated (Saussure, 1959). This study, unlike most of current literature, uncovered the social aspects of language and its affect on power in organizations at times of radical change.
520 $a The study described how language played a critical role in implementing the radical change. The key findings showed that a novel language, which embedded new words introduced by new leaders, served to support the new power structure and hierarchy. Although the company claimed itself as French, English imposed itself as the novel common language. The use of the novel language across the organization introduced new work practices and a new work ethics that characterized the organizational change put in place during the merger. Those findings confirmed Bourdieu's (1991) theoretical framework regarding language and power, and three aspects of language: static, genetic and generative. The most important contribution of this dissertation was the description of the phenomenon of languaging and its affect on social actors to lead to radical changes in power and roles. In the tradition of Barrett, Thomas & Hocevar (1995), the researcher discovered that a radical organizational change started with a change in language and the emergence of a common novel language in a generative manner (Bourdieu, 1991). Further research would need to be pursued regarding the outlier study group: bilingual participants, who clearly exhibited different traits in terms of affect, cognition and intentionality.
