In this article a philosophical view of rationality is developed which is relevant to our understanding of organizations, especially in connexion with problems of meaning and power. I argue that we need to overcome the traditional dichotomy of feeling and reason, and that means-end and communicative rationality are to be supplemented by another mode, which I call `relational rationality'.
