Item SHARED LEADERSHIP THEORY: AN EXAMINATION OF SHARED LEADERSHIP DIMENSIONS IN SOCIAL NETWORK THEORY TOWARD NETWORK INNOVATION(2021-10-18) MAAROOF, Aymen; TUZLUKAYA, ŞuleThe aim of the study is to study and examine the shared leadership dimensions in social network theory toward network innovation. This study visualizes shared leadership theory and its dimensions in social network theory. The roles of the dimensions are not important only in shared leadership, but they are crucial in social network theory. The dimensions are 1) task coordination 2) personal support, and 3) information sharing. The dimensions are the characteristics of network innovation in social network theory. Complexity leadership theory is the root and the origin of shared leadership. Shared leadership is one of the windows in complexity leadership theory. Complexity leadership theory has been discussed in order to provide a clear vision about shared leadership. The results were found via using social network analysis UCINET software. Social network analysis is not a traditional approach and methodology for collecting data from the samples in this universe, but it is for collecting data and understanding the relationships among members according to each dimension (variable) in the network in bounded samples or 98 participants. The results were found and they support the study except for the density was low for each network, but the density of clusters was high for each network. This case cannot be described as a negative result because clusters participated to innovate network. Only it can be described as a low density without negative description because it was supported from the clusters that innovate the whole network. Each dimension represents its statistical description, network pattern, and weak and strong ties. Task coordination, personal support, and information sharing were discussed and examined via statistical description, network pattern, and weak and strong ties. The more details were discussed in related sections.
