在益趨激烈的競爭環境下，如何建構一個「雙面兼具」 (Ambidextrous) 的組織，已成為越來越受到重視的課題。然而，企業組織既要妥善利用現有資源發揮「利用型創新」 (Exploitative Innovation) 與必須兼顧企業未來發展所須之「探索型創新」 (Explorative Innovation)，對於內部資源有限的企業來說，著實是一具高度挑戰的管理議題。若能結合企業外部資源的獲取，對於上述企業資源受限的窘境，Ambidexterity將為可行的「解決之道」之一。就此而言，學術界對於企業創新的相關研究文獻，已逐漸有學者提出「網絡與創新」的研究成果。唯有更細緻化的因果關聯的研究則仍然未能取得較具體的論證。例如，什麼樣的網絡關係結構對利用型創新較具正向影響？反之，為了促進探索型創新的效能，又該建構什麼樣的網絡關係結構？更重要的，網絡結構與創新二者間之因果機構為何？這些都仍有待進一步的釐清。更有甚者，透由網絡資源的取得以強化不同類型創新的績效，其中之關鍵即在於取得什麼樣的資源?以及如何取得？就此而言，網絡分析概念中， ”Who？” 及 ”Where？” 以及 “How？” 等問題的釐清，將有助於吾人對上述問題提出更直接的論述。易言之，網絡的概念是多面向的，異質性的，不同層次的網絡關係結構對於網絡資源的類型的取得方式，都非常不一樣的意涵。因此，本研究即旨在以多層次網絡的觀點，探討企業如何藉助於各種不同網絡關係的型塑，以獲取與整合利用異質性的網絡資源，進而提昇其雙面兼俱的能力與績效。最後，為了初步檢視此一思考邏輯為基礎之研究架構，本文嘗試以模擬方法，進行研究結果之分析與討論。

Under the circumstance of hyper competition, how to build up an “ambidextrous” organization has become an important topic. However, firm or organization not only engages in making use of existing resources to develop “Exploitative Innovation”, but also is involved in “Explorative Innovation” for future development. To those firms with limited resources, this is a really challenging management issue. If firms can internalize external resources, ambidexterity will be one of the accessible “solutions” to the restriction resulting from limited resources. In this line, among literatures relating to innovation, researchers have gradually proposed research results about “network and innovation.” However, the detailed causal relationship in between so far has not received specific evidence. For example, what network structure has more positive influence on exploitative innovation? On the contrary, in order to facilitate the effectiveness of explorative innovation, what network relationship structure should be established? More importantly, what is the causal relationship between network structure and innovation? These questions require further clarification. Moreover, network resources acquirement strengthens the performance of innovation from different types. The key factor lies in what resources to attain and how to attain. In the concept of network analysis, when “Who?”, “Where?” and “How?” and other related questions are clarified more carefully, researchers will better point out more direct opinion. Briefly speaking, the concept of network is multi-dimension, heterogeneity; and, methods that diversified levels of network relationship structure obtain various network resources point out intensely different implications. Therefore, in multi-level network framework, this research thus aims at discussing how firms attain, integrate and apply heterogonous network resources, and improve the capability and performance of ambidexterity by various network relationship formations. Finally, for the sake of preliminarily testing this thinking logic as a research structure, computer simulation method is implemented here to undertake the analysis and discussion of the research result.
