CHATURVEDI, Sankalp GEORGE, Gerard KING, Zella We examine individuals' collaboration preferences in the Knowledge Transfer Network (KTN) for the UK plastics electronics sector. Using conjoint analysis, we investigate how aspiration gaps and relational capability affect the value placed on potential organizational collaborations. Aspiration gaps reflect individuals' perception of whether they are ahead of or behind peers on their career trajectory, and relational capability captures three distinct dimensions: networking skills, openness to collaborate, and network awareness. Our findings suggest that positive and negative aspiration gaps augment preferences to form organizational partnerships. These effects are positively moderated by networking skills and openness and negatively moderated by network awareness. We discuss the implications of these findings for theories of partnership formation, scientific collaboration, and behavioral strategy. 2016-07-01T07:00:00Z text application/pdf https://ink.library.smu.edu.sg/lkcsb_research/4741 info:doi/10.1002/smj.2396 https://ink.library.smu.edu.sg/context/lkcsb_research/article/5740/viewcontent/auto_convert.pdf http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/ Research Collection Lee Kong Chian School Of Business eng Institutional Knowledge at Singapore Management University aspirations collaboration conjoint analysis networks preferences R&D Strategic Management Policy Technology and Innovation |
