Fortsatta studier

Fortsatta studier inom ämnet bör främst tillägnas att vidare studera om informationsutbytet reducerar konsulters expertisrelaterade osäkerhet samt hur informationsutbytet kan utvecklas till explicit och tyst kunskap. Till följd av att vi har gjort en fallstudie är möjligheten att generalisera till andra fall i andra kontext begränsad. En tvärsnittsstudie bör göras för att undersöka företeelsen i andra konsultföretag. Fler djupgående fallstudier kan även göras för att få djupare insikt i ämnet. Fortsatta studier bör även ägnas åt att undersöka osäkerheten vilken uppkommer till följd av konsulters brist på tillit till sina kollegors kompetens för att skapa djupare argument för att det är en berättigad osäkerhet.
