Abstract
This paper seeks to extend current theories of the constitution of organizations, specifically those related to communication, secrecy, and gossip as a form of communication. It is suggested that at the intersection of these three is secret or confidential gossip, which has a powerful, albeit hidden, capacity to construct organizational relationships, including group formation and organizational socialization.
