Construing organizational texture in young entrepreneurial firms

Article Abstract:

In a young entrepreneurial firm, two developmental processes are identified. One reflects the emergence of a social network whilst the other reflects the emergence of a task domain. The concept of 'organizational dialogue' is introduced to describe the action strategies through which these two processes are connected. The resulting textures may critically be examined to produce 'process' knowledge. It is argued that organizational theory can benefit from more work of this kind.
