  2. Strong ties to powerful individuals, such as access to executives, is positively correlated with work performance, however having many weak ties to management is negatively correlated with work performance.
  
  3. A team with strong ties to the management can be beneficial for work performance, having many managers working on the same project exhibits an inverted U-shape relationship with performance.
  
  4. Participating in projects with the appropriate social capital can boost consultants‘ work performance in addition to their own social capital.
