Substantial Interest

A real-life case study presented in this chapter reports on how organizational network analysis approach was used in a medium-sized Italian company with circa 100 employees to examine how the company employees were connected by shared values at work, what these values are, and whether and how their value connectedness impacted the quality of their collaboration. The findings indicate that there was a positive correlation between shared work values and work collaboration, present benchmarks for network parameters, as well as propose macro-categories of work values. To the best of the authors' knowledge, this is the first study to use the network-analysis approach to explore shared values and employee collaboration at work. The chapter should be of substantial interest not only to academic scholars but also to organizational leaders and HR practitioners.

Negative Effect

As a means to maintain competitive advantages of organizations, knowledge transfer has attracted more and more attention in the academic circle. In this paper, the concept of network distance is introduced on the basis of social network analysis method, and the influence of network distance between organizations in social network on knowledge transfer is studied. Moreover, analogue simulation is conducted by utilizing 10 innovative enterprises in Shanghai Withub Hi-Tech Center. According to the researches, firstly, knowledge growth rate of the entire network tends to increase at first and then becomes stable as time passes. In this process, knowledge difference level among various organizations continues to decline and tends to be stable finally. Secondly, network distance has a negative effect on knowledge transfer. According to the simulation results, organizations need to continuously improve their knowledge absorption ability, to change the network connection mode, and to form a close network with other organizations.
