| Abstract: | This article reviews theory on coalition formation and what it might mean to a manager in an organization. It defines coalition, for the purpose of the discussion, as a means-oriented alliance among groups or individuals who differ in goals. The author proposes that a theoretic understanding of coalitions, coupled with communications network analysis, would be a useful tool for discerning particular types of organizational coalitions and a guide to who might coalesce with whom for a detrimental result. |
