Abstract

ABSTRACTThis study aims to contribute to the existing literature by providing a deeper understanding of the links between the multiple layers in organizational culture and the different Co-working characteristics. The research presented here develops a new taxonomy of Co-working spaces by integrating results from qualitative semi-structured interviews supported by previous theoretical and empirical research. We conducted interviews with 44 owners or founders of co-working spaces. A thematic analysis revealed three different approaches to co-working, namely a profit-oriented perspective, a community-oriented perspective and a hybrid pattern that combines both perspectives. Drawing upon the interaction models, our findings contribute to a better understanding of different Co-working cultures in an increasingly competitive market. Accordingly, future research should validate the proposed model with complimentary methodologies (e.g. questionnaires) and longitudinal designs to track how Co-working culture persists or changes over time.KEYWORDS: Co-workingcommunity-orientedorganizational cultureprofit-orientedqualitative Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationFundingThis research was supported in part by Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia [grant UIDB/00315/2020].

联合办公空间的不同色调:文化变化如何解释市场规则

摘要本研究旨在通过对组织文化的多个层面与不同的联合工作特征之间的联系提供更深入的理解，从而对现有文献做出贡献。本文提出的研究通过整合以往理论和实证研究支持的定性半结构化访谈的结果，开发了一种新的联合办公空间分类方法。我们采访了44位联合办公空间的所有者或创始人。一项专题分析揭示了三种不同的联合办公方式，即以利润为导向的观点、以社区为导向的观点和结合两种观点的混合模式。借鉴这些互动模型，我们的发现有助于在竞争日益激烈的市场中更好地理解不同的联合办公文化。因此，未来的研究应该通过补充方法(如问卷调查)和纵向设计来验证所提出的模型，以跟踪联合办公文化如何随着时间的推移而持续或变化。关键词:合作工作;社区导向;组织文化;本研究得到了技术与发展基金会[grant UIDB/00315/2020]的部分支持。

期刊介绍： Culture and Organization was founded in 1995 as Studies in Cultures, Organizations and Societies . It represents the intersection of academic disciplines that have developed distinct qualitative, empirical and theoretical vocabularies to research organization, culture and related social phenomena. Culture and Organization features refereed articles that offer innovative insights and provoke discussion. It particularly offers papers which employ ethnographic, critical and interpretive approaches, as practised in such disciplines as organizational, communication, media and cultural studies, which go beyond description and use data to advance theoretical reflection. The Journal also presents papers which advance our conceptual understanding of organizational phenomena.
