Work Roles and Careers of R&D Scientists in Network Organizations
研究了网络组织模式下，研发科学家在产业与学术界关系变化中的工作角色与职业生涯，探讨企业如何通过与大学建立紧密的人力资源联系来缓解科学与商业的张力。
Despite the burgeoning literature on the network organization as a new mode of innovation, we know little about how the flow of knowledge across organizational boundaries is intertwined with careers. This study explores the implications of the network model of R&D organization for the work roles and careers of R&D scientists within the changing relationship between industry and the academia. It examines how firms seek to resolve the tension between science and business by developing closer human resource ties with universities. It argues that firms have sought to construct “extended” internal labour markets (EILMs) between themselves and the universities with which they collaborate, leading to the formation of a hybrid scientific community straddling the two sectors.
