Dr. Siwei Zhu and co-authors Publish a Study in Creativity and Innovation Management

Dr. Siwei Zhu at Paseka School of Business and co-authors Dr. Koen (Stevens Institute of Technology), Dr. Bertels (College of Staten Island, CUNY), and Dr. Skvoretz (University of South Florida) have had their manuscript accepted for publication in Creativity and Innovation Management (SCImago SJR: Q1). Using data from top biochemical scientists at Exxon Mobil, the study finds that while the depth of a scientist’s integrative knowledge network has no direct effect, network breadth shows an inverted U-shaped relationship with breakthrough innovation—significantly moderated by weak ties. This research was supported by the Consortium for Corporate Entrepreneurship (CCE).
