BELTRAME, Gabriela  e  DINIZ PEREIRA, Breno Augusto. Transforming cooperation practices into individual routines: an analysis of firms inserted in cooperation networks. Pensam. gest. [online]. 2018, n.45, pp.239-263. ISSN 1657-6276.  https://doi.org/10.14482/pege.45.10854.

This research study aims to identify new organizational routines practiced by firms that are members of horizontal interorganizational networks as a result of knowledge acquired through cooperation. Based on the study by Provan, Fish and Sydow (2007), four different ways to share knowledge in a network are proposed. The method is an exploratory, qualitative approach through a multi-case study. The units of analysis are ten firms that are members of two supermarket networks. In-depth interviews with managers were performed and analyzed by content analysis. This research study brings empirical and theoretical contributions, shedding light on how shared knowledge in a network can transform and develop companies, allowing small details and simple information to contribute to companies' growth and permanence in the market.
