Organizational semiotics offers a semiotic approach to the analysis and design of organizations, economic transactions and information systems. Semiotics studies signs, in the form of texts, documents, sign-based artefacts like information systems, and memes as relatively autonomous and persistent phenomena. These signs are studied in their relation to their author, their reader, the world they represent, and other signs. Well-known methods of organizational semiotics are, for instance, actor interaction analysis, actor task analysis, semantic analysis, and norm analysis.
