Investigating Collaboration in Ecosystems
Abstract
In the current scenario, we live in an open world where businesses and organizations will only remain competitive if they learn to develop strategies for interaction and collaboration. Although collaboration has its benefits recognized within organizations, its dynamics in ecosystems brings many challenges. This paper presents an investigation on collaboration in digital, software, business, and innovation ecosystems. Challenges such as the lack of supporting platforms, the need to adapt processes, and social issues (e.g., lack of trust and leadership) were observed. This study calls researchers and practitioners to better design and develop solutions for these contexts.
