Tracing the Emergence of Organizational Forms
2
Environment: Organizations compete for scare resources; during rapid periods of
disruption, new entrants seek “protected” niches (Weber & Monge 2014)
Population: In digital spaces, online connections provide communicative representations of
information flows (Weber & Monge, 2012)
Formation of ties (e.g. hyperlinks) can positively impact long-term likelihood of organization survival (Weber, 2012)
Organization: Organizations adapt internally, reconfiguring team structures and
developing new routines for knowledge sharing (Ellison, Gibbs & Weber, 2015; Weber & Kim, Under Review)

why hyperlinks?
8
Partnerships & interorganizational linkages facilitate transformation and survival (Baum and Oliver, 1991)
Partnerships provide economic and reputational benefits (Ruef & Scott, 1991)
Hyperlinks: a digital form of interorganizational linkage (Halavais, 2008; Park, 2003)
establish a formal public relationship between two organizations (Halavais, 2008)
Institutional hyperlinks should lower newspaper mortality rates

Linking Matters
• Hyperlinks are more than information sharing; can impact organizational longevity (Weber 2012; Weber & Monge, 2014)– Linking behavior signals a deeper shift in organizational mentality– Impact is moderated by a host of factors, but aggressive shifts to digital can
impact survival over time
• Hyperlinks are not as significant for new entrants– New entrants benefit more from traditional mechanisms of legitimacy – media
attention, legal rulings, etc.– Hyperlinking moderates the effect

Implications
• Longitudinal studies of digital behavior promise to reveal significant insight into the cumulative impact of digital strategies– Lessons learned provide insight into potential impact of social media
• Strategy is an important factor for understanding how existing organizations transform during periods of rapid change– Particularly in an online environment, organizational strategy can have a notable
impact of over time survival• Understanding the true value of a link/social link economy is critical
for both information-based organizations and individuals engaged with news media
