The chapters explore the tensions that exist between external and internal institutional forces. As new forms of control strategies emerge, mostly value-based, this book accounts for the cognitive categories, conventions, rules and logic that should be integrated and combined with traditional forms of managerial controls in order to enable co-existence with established bureaucratic frameworks. This book will be of interest to academics in the fields of organizational behavior and innovation management, and also practitioners and managers aiming to shift from a traditional hierarchical structure to post-bureaucratic forms.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eMaria Carmela Annosi is Assistant Professor at the Management Studies Group of the School of Social Sciences at Wageningen University, The Netherlands.
