Loosely Coupled Systems for Corporate Entrepreneurship : Imagining and Managing the Innovation Project/Host Organization Interface
提出松散耦合系统概念来理解创新项目与主办企业之间的界面，通过分析两家财富500强公司的13个创新项目访谈，识别了管理行动如何影响两者间的独立性，为管理者提供了新视角。
This paper explores the concept of loosely coupled systems as an image representing the interface between innovation projects (emerging organizations) and their host corporations (existing organizations). The model calls attention to ways in which management's actions create more or less independence between innovation and host organization systems. Analyzing interviews from 13 innovation projects in two Fortune 500 corporations, everyday actions that loosen and couple innovation and management systems are identified. Findings offer new ways of conceptualizing and managing this important interface.
