The Role of Communication and Trust in Global Virtual Teams: A Social Network Perspective (2011, background): “7] have suggested that the network analysis perspective can provide beneficial information regarding an individual, and regarding the “effectiveness of one’s personal network,” few IS studies [2, 58] have actually adopted this approach.”

The Performance Consequences of Ambidexterity in Strategic Alliance Formations: Empirical Investigation and Computational Theorizing (2007, background): “As researchers argued that firms are not isolated from external network relations, firms’ network attributes do affect the performance implications of their approach in alliance formation (Ahuja et al. 2003, Gulati 1998).”
Evolution of R&D Capabilities: The Role of Knowledge Networks Within a Firm (2005, background): “Other research has examined the effect of centrality on individual behavior in organizations (Brass and Burkhardt 1993) and on individual performance (Ahuja et al. 2003, Mehra et al. 2001).”
Perceived Proximity in Virtual Work: Explaining the Paradox of Far-but-Close (2008, background): “Second, we believe that conflicting claims about the impact and importance of distance (Cairncross 1997; Olson and Olson 2002), as well as contradictory empirical findings (Allen 1977; Ariel 2000; Cummings 2004), may stem from prior authors’ focus on physical proximity.”
Latent social structure in open source projects (2008, background): “In previous work, ourselves and others have found that betweenness centrality [61] is indicative of high levels of social status, power, and managerial roles in both open source [7] and commercial [1, 38] contexts.”
What's Different about Social Media Networks? A Framework and Research Agenda (2014, background): “…with researchers investigating how patterns of ties in IT-enabled networks affect user performance, such as discussion boards (Ahuja and Carley 1999; Ahuja et al. 2003), e-mail networks (Aral and Van Alstyne 2011; Gandal et al. 2009), and collaboration platforms (Ransbotham, Kane, and Lurie 2012).”
Social Capital and Knowledge Integration in Digitally Enabled Teams (2008, background): “Interactions among individuals have been shown to be an important determinant of knowledge sharing and use in traditional (Brass et al. 2004, Borgatti and Cross 2003), as well as digital, groups (Ahuja et al. 2003).”
Network Exchange Patterns in Online Communities (2011, background): “A number of individual factors leading to increased participation have been identified: functional role (Ahuja et al. 2003), self-interest (von Hippel and von Krogh 2003), boundary-spanning roles (Fleming and Waguespack 2007), trust (Jarvenpaa and Leidner 1999), and reputation (Constant et al.”
