Networking by professionals to manage change: dentists' cooperation and competition to develop their business
Article Abstract:
The concept of cooperation enables professionals to perform their networking functions efficiently and accurately, as revealed by an analysis conducted on 52 employed dentists in Vancouver and British Colombia. Results suggest that cooperative interaction does not only enhance productivity and morale but help employees and managers achieve their goals as well. Cooperation further induces professionals to make optimal decisions. It was also shown that discussing issues open-mindedly tends to boost the confidence of network members and at the same time, encourage them to improve their organization.
