    2. What’s the occasion? Practically speaking, Increasing interdependence at work Collaboration, coordination, cooperation in high demand PRACTICAL RELATIONAL CHALLENGES INCREASING

    3. What’s the occasion? Theoretically speaking, Call for more relational constructs (Baron and Pfeffer, 1994; Bradbury and Lichtenstein, 2000; Kahn, 1998; Emirbayer, 1997) Historically, stronger focus on structure of relationships (e.g., network studies) Less focus on quality of relationships between two or more people Where has been focus on quality (e.g., LMX), focus on limited relational domain (boss-subordinate) Constructs that capture quality or relationship (trust, strength) steeped in exchange-based construal of relationship Tend to focus on more enduring relationships, ignoring more transient but potentially high impact connections NEED FOR RICHER, MORE GENERIC RELATIONAL CONSTRUCTS THAT CAPTURE QUALITY OF CONNECTION BETWEEN TWO OR MORE PEOPLE
