Netcod

Netcod ei rajoitu yhteen teoreettiseen koulukuntaan tai kontekstiin, vaan käyttää teoreettisia työkaluja johtamisen ja organisoinnin, markkinoinnin, sosiologian ja yrittäjyyden keskusteluista. Tämänhetkiset tutkimushankkeet kohdistuvat pk-yritysten verkostomaisiin liiketoimintamalleihin, asiakas- ja verkostosuhteiden johtamiseen, markkinoiden muokkaukseen, brändirakkauteen sekä arvon yhteisluontiin. Ryhmässä tehdään myös käsiteanalyyttisen tutkimusmenetelmän kehittämistä.

• MUKI - Municipality as a network actor: managing the strategic change

Ruotsista Uppsalan yliopistosta, Tanskasta Copenhagen Business School, Irlannista South East Technological University, Iso-Britanniasta University of Manchester, Intiasta Indian Institute of Technology ja kotimaasta Hankenilta, Oulun ja Vaasan yliopistoista sekä Oulun ja Satakunnan ammattikorkeakouluista.
