| Abstract: | Participation in self-organizing networks of firms that exist to carry out the repeated innovation of complex technologies is becoming increasingly important. To achieve and maintain leadership, these networks must achieve mutually reinforcing fit among organizational core capabilities, complementary assets, learning and linkages to the external environment. Three distinct patterns have been identified within which these networks operate: transformational, normal and transitional. Each presents its own management opportunities and requirements, but all call for a premium to be placed on exploratory, experimental approaches to decision making. |
