Research Interests

Communication technologies change the very essence of business - how, if at all, do organisations evolve from presently hardwired structures to flexible networks of people that produce smarter results for a better world? Are networks 'better', how should that be assessed, is it possible to judge, assess, or influence the shape of more successful networks? What position should an individual firm wish to take in a dynamic network? Is the network perspective different from tradional management science?
