Organizational relationships can be measured more precisely using models based on network analysis. Using a variety of statistical models, the presentation explores how closely connected individuals are to one another.
To establish the success of a relationship between elements, the complications of quantifying this relationship necessitate the exploration of complicated models in hyperdimensional modes such as the Euclidean space and the Voronoi diagram. The research objective is to increase the accuracy with which one can estimate the ideal dynamics of a team in relation to a particular goal.
The presentation's primary focus will be an introduction to the significance of Organizational Network Analysis (ONA) in understanding relationships, its advantages, and the potential it may bring to people transformation initiatives.
