So many teams, so little time
Geographically dispersed teams whose members do not allocate all of their time to a single team increasingly carry out knowledge‐intensive work in multinational organizations. Taking an attention‐based view of team design, we investigate the antecedents and consequences of member time allocation in a multi‐level study of 2055 members of 285 teams in a large global corporation, using member survey data and independent executive ratings of team per…
Coordination costs and project outcomes in multi-university collaborations
Relational instability at the network core
Collaborative Research Across Disciplinary and Organizational Boundaries
Scientific and engineering research increasingly involves multidisciplinary collaboration, sometimes across multiple organizations. Technological advances have made such cross-boundary projects possible, yet they can carry high coordination costs. This study investigated scientific collaboration across disciplinary and university boundaries to understand the need for coordination in these collaborations and how different levels of coordination pr…
Work Groups, Structural Diversity, and Knowledge Sharing in a Global Organization
Effective work groups engage in external knowledge sharing—the exchange of information, know-how, and feedback with customers, organizational experts, and others outside of the group. This paper argues that the value of external knowledge sharing increases when work groups are more structurally diverse. A structurally diverse work group is one in which the members, by virtue of their different organizational affiliations, roles, or positions, can…
Structural properties of work groups and their consequences for performance
The quality of online social relationships
Online relationships are less valuable than offline ones. Indeed, their net benefit depends on whether they supplement or substitute for offline social relationships.
Domesticating Computers and the Internet
The people who use computers and the ways they use them have changed substantially over the past 25 years. In the beginning highly educated men in technical professions used computers for work, but over time a much broader range of people are using computers for personal and domestic purposes. This trend is still continuing, and over a shorter time scale has been replicated with the use of the Internet. This paper uses data from four national sur…
Internet Paradox Revisited
Kraut et al. (1998) reported negative effects of using the Internet on social involvement and psychological well-being among new Internet users in 1995-96. We called the effects a "paradox" because participants used the Internet heavily for communication, which generally has positive effects. A 3-year follow-up of 208 of these respondents found that negative effects dissipated. We also report findings from a longitudinal survey in 1998-99 of 406 …
