Self Comes to Mind: framework for corporisational identity?

On the whole, as a Chiristain taking seriously the Hebraic heritage of affirmation of matter and body and of a holistic orientation, I'm sympathtic and not particularly threatened by Damasios's perspectives. So Im interested to read this review of his latest book. The reviewer makes a really helpful summary of the basic thesis:

consciousness emerges only when – to quote the book's title – self comes to mind, so that in key brain regions, the representational maps of sensory experience intersect with the encoded experiences of past that self provides. This, enabled by the evolution of language, makes possible autobiographical memory – the narrative of our lives that we humans all possess and which is the basis for consciousness. This, briefly summarised, is the latest version of Damasio's theory

If this is rough;y right with regard to humans and other animals and if I'm barking up the right tree in thinking about the Powers /corporisations by analogy with human persons, then reading the above description as a possble description of corporisations is helpful. 'Brain' may have to be though of as systems for processing information and keeping records in a corporisation. Language may be systems of communication and it is easier now to conceive of a corporisation having a sense of self borne of history, records, data, missiosn statements and the like.
