Abstract: Purpose - – This paper aims to set social network, which is recently drawing the most attention in the business administration field, as a major dependent variable of political skill. It is because social network plays a very important role in improving the productivity and performance of firms, and, in actuality, many researches have proved that social network greatly contributes to firm performance. Design/methodology/approach - – Researches into social network have not yet established that “through what” or “how” social network can be formed and affected. Findings - – In this study, the authors attempt to connect social network with political skill, which is a cause variable. Originality/value - – This approach will give us a better understanding on the formation of social networks and its relationship with political skill, and so eventually, such negative recognition about the politics can be viewed from a different sight of angle.
