Operations and Supply Chain Management
ABSTRACT
As innovation has been outsourced globally, it has joined
manufacturing organizations consisting of diverse cultures,
geographies, and partnerships. The use of third-party resources
to manage design and innovation has resulted in a new system
of knowledge management. As the industry’s organizational
and financial boundaries have attenuated, a new type of
leadership challenge has emerged, creating the research
question: Are there leadership practices or styles that
effectively guide organizations that rely on the outsourcing of
innovation and manufacturing to Taiwan and China in the
computing industry? A qualitative case study method was used
to investigate the differing leadership practices applied within a
dialectic global production network in which a system of
innovation and manufacturing has emerged. The analysis
considers a full range of leadership behaviours used when
facing the challenges of outsourcing R&D.
