A number of scholars have argued that if an actor’s partner in a network form of organization possesses considerable legitimacy or status, then the actor may derive legitimacy or status through the affiliation. This legitimacy or status may in turn have a number of positive economic benefits for the actor, ranging from survival to organizational […]

Last week we started a call-for-participation for this year’s Open Space Workshop sessions at the Entprise 2.0 SUMMIT. While some of the workshop topics will still be defined at the conference directly – resulting from the ideas and questions gathered during the “Market of Ideas” – six topics have already been proposed and selected in […]
