That’s why we increasingly see them working together to create value in organizational networks. When should you join this kind of network?

De TIAS experience of Dorine Peters-van Dommelen
“I signed up for this program because I wanted to learn about the latest developments. The main thing I learned is knowing when you need an organizational network and when to pull back from it. Sometimes it seems like we’re organizing just to organize. The question we always need to ask ourselves is whether the current problem really requires an organizational network. Sometimes it doesn’t, and a simple project organization will suffice.”
Dorine Peters-van Dommelen, Interim Director of Real Estate, Emergis
