Collaborating Smartly: The Role of Open Strategy in Absorptive Capacity
研究了开放战略如何通过共享知识和协作提升跨部门合作中的吸收能力，发现共同目标下的相互依赖感是增强知识积累的主要机制，且正式组织机制比非正式机制更有效。
Research on open strategy suggests that shared knowledge through collaboration can generate co-created value. We explore this idea by assessing it as a predictor of absorptive capacity (ACAP) in cross-sector partnerships in pursuit of social innovation. The findings of our study indicate that aspects of strategic openness, including a shared sense of interdependence toward a mutual goal, are the primary mechanisms that enhance knowledge accretion in cross-sector partnerships. The data also suggest that formalized organizational mechanisms are more influential for producing ACAP than informal mechanisms.
