Why is it important?

The present work conducts a joint empirical analysis of the different relationship networks related to an organization (a museum), such as internal, external and curator’s networks, and their link to the organization’s performance in terms of innovation. Therefore, our work contributes to the study of cultural organizations by adopting the social capital and social network theories as a main approach to interpret how museums react to turbulent times and attempt to achieve innovation, reputation and funding through social capital.
