MULTI-LEVEL NETWORK MANAGEMENT: A METHOD FOR EFFECTIVE MANAGEMENT OF INTER-ORGANIZATIONAL INNOVATION NETWORK
Abstract
Inter-organizational innovation networks play a crucial role in fostering collaborative innovation and knowledge exchange among organizations. However, managing such networks poses unique challenges due to their complex and dynamic nature. This study proposes a multi-level network management method aimed at enhancing the effectiveness of inter-organizational innovation networks. The method integrates both structural and relational aspects of network management and recognizes the importance of different levels of analysis, including the individual, organizational, and network levels. By adopting a holistic approach, the proposed method enables managers to navigate the intricacies of inter-organizational networks, promote collaboration, and facilitate innovation. The effectiveness of the method is demonstrated through a case study of an inter-organizational innovation network in the technology sector. The findings highlight the significance of multi-level network management in achieving successful collaboration and innovation outcomes within inter-organizational contexts.
