Notes

  1. 1.

    There is not much accumulated research on paradoxical management that considers networks between organizations in terms of time variation. Ford and Bockoff presented a paradoxical perspective on synchronic and diachronic organizational dualities. If such paradoxes provide corporations the chance for innovation, the content and quality of innovation must greatly be influenced by the nature of the paradox. Therefore, it may become more and more important to perceive paradoxical phenomena constructively and positively, and understand them as being the motive power for the radical transformation of corporations (Kodama 2003, 2004).
