Developing adaptivity and responsiveness in organisations through human network structures: a management strategy

Abstract

Abstract Networking is promoted as vital for contemporary organizational development, yet little research exists on how networks can be designed within organizations to strengthen the infrastructure toward agility and responsiveness. In this article, we examine findings from an ethnographic study to explore the application of networking as a management strategy to foster adaptability and responsiveness to both emerging internal and external needs.
