Résumé
Les capacités dynamiques reposent sur des processus organisationnels qui diffèrent selon que l’on s’inscrit dans une démarche d’exploitation ou d’exploration. Peut-on établir un lien entre les caractéristiques des réseaux sociaux dans lesquels sont engagés les acteurs des projets et le développement d’une capacité d’exploration ? Pour répondre à cette question, nous avons suivi pendant quatre ans les équipes dédiées à quatre projets d’exploration chez un fabricant de semi-conducteurs. Il apparaît que la structure du réseau et les type de liens peuvent faciliter le développement des capacités d’exploration. Notamment, les structures de type coeur/périphérie semblent propices au développement de ces capacités.

Abstract
Dynamic capabilities are based on organizational processes which differ according to the level of exploratory of the project.Is there a relationship between the characteristics of social network of project holders and the development of an exploratory capability? To answer that question, we collected data during four years on four teams involved in exploratory project in a semiconductor company. The network structure and type of ties facilitate the development of exploratory capabilities. In particular, core/periphery structure enhances the development of such capabilities.
Keywords:
- Dynamic capabilities,
- exploration,
- innovation,
- social network
Resumen
Las capacidades dinámicas se basan en procesos organizacionales diferentes según se inscriban en un método de explotación o de exploración. ¿Podemos establecer un vínculo entre las características de las redes sociales en que están comprometidas los actores de los proyectos y el desarrollo de una capacidad de exploración? Para responder a esta pregunta, seguimos los equipos dedicados a cuatro proyectos de exploración de un fabricante de semiconductores. Resulta que la estructura de la red y los tipos de vínculos pueden facilitar el desarrollo de las capacidades de exploración, especialmente las estructuras de tipo corazón/periferia propicias al desarrollo de estas capacidades.
