| Tiivistelmä: | The effects of change in technology on organizational structure and power were investigated in a study of setting up and diffusing a computerized information system. Employees increased their power and network centrality following the change in technology. In particular, early users of the new technology increased their power and centrality to a greater degree than later ones. Analyses suggest that centrality precedes power. While the diffusion process occured via the network structure, it also imposed changes in the structure. Adoption patterns are more closely related to network structure after the change than prior to the change. |
