Abstract:
If an organization needs a strategy, then a strategy needs an organization. And if strategy is about creating advantage, organization can offer thati. Arguably, Wikipedia’s primary source of advantage is not its database but the unique volunteer organization that acts as its custodian.
If organizational architecture determines possible outcomes, what choice allows for an organization with limited resources to be global? And what choice tilts the odds in favor of resilience, innovation and shared leadership?
The networked organization is one answer, one strategy.
