组织内部和组织之间的跨界合作是一种日益流行的创新策略。知识多样性被视为扩大了团队可以利用来进行创新的观点和想法的范围。然而,案例研究表明,跨知识边界的团队合作在实践中可能很困难,而且创新并不总能实现。有两种研究流对于理解跨界团队所固有的挑战特别相关:团队有效性研究和组织知识研究。它们提供了互补的见解:前者侧重于群体动态,并测量团队输入、过程、紧急状态和结果,而后者则密切研究反复出现的社会实践中的对话和对象。本文从这两方面入手,试图揭示跨境合作的复杂性,同时强调可能提高其有效性的因素。我们开发了一个综合模型,以提供比以前的方法更强的解释力来评估跨界团队的努力和他们的创新绩效。(C) 2017年作者。Elsevier Inc.出版。这是一篇基于CC BY-NC-ND许可的开放获取文章。
Cross-boundary teaming, within and across organizations, is an increasingly popular strategy for innovation. Knowledge diversity is seen to expand the range of views and ideas that teams can draw upon to innovate. Yet, case studies reveal that teaming across knowledge boundaries can be difficult in practice, and innovation is not always realized. Two streams of research are particularly relevant for understanding the challenges inherent in cross-boundary teaming: research on team effectiveness and research on knowledge in organizations. They offer complementary insights: the former stream focuses on group dynamics and measures team inputs, processes, emergent states, and outcomes, while the latter closely investigates dialog and objects in recurrent social practices. Drawing from both streams, this paper seeks to shed light on the complexity of cross-boundary teaming, while highlighting factors that may enhance its effectiveness. We develop an integrative model to provide greater explanatory power than previous approaches to assess cross-boundary teaming efforts and their innovation performance. (C) 2017 The Authors.
