Hi, need to submit a 1500 words paper on the topic Individual connectedness in innovation networks: On the role of individual motivation. Key focus of the paper would be to critique the quantitative methods used in the research paper and understand the research setting used by mentioned scholars. Aalbersa, Dolfsmab and Koppiusb (2013) pointed out that their research topic is not new and previous research scholars like Foss (2007), Jackson et al (2006) and others already conducted research on role of knowledge transfer in encouraging innovation within organization. Therefore, Aalbersa, Dolfsmab and Koppiusb (2013) never tried to juggle between knowledge management and its impact on innovation rather the scholars opened the discussion about the influence of intrinsic and extrinsic motivation of a particular individual to knowledge network connectedness within organizational setting. Kalish and Robins (2006) also found that an insignificant amount of research is available on role of individual psychological differences in directing the knowledge transfer process in context to organizational network perspective. Due to such gap in literature, research work of Aalbersa, Dolfsmab and Koppiusb (2013) can be considered as the seminal effort to find the direction of working of human motivation to their connectedness towards organizational knowledge transfer cycle.
