ONA - Organizational Network Analysis to uncover informal leaders and collaboration patterns

 

The organization needed to understand who the informal leaders were in order to carry out a change management initiative associated with the implementation of their "Lean Meetings" strategy. To achieve this, an Organizational Network Analysis (ONA) study was conducted using passive data generated from Microsoft 365 collaboration tools, Teams, and Calendar.

​

Based on this data, collaboration patterns were analyzed, and individuals with the highest degree of centrality in the Sophia Laboratories network were identified. The 30 individuals identified showed high levels of connectivity and relationships, not only within their own teams but also with people from other areas and hierarchical levels.

​

Additionally, collaboration patterns of the Directors and Managers from each area were studied to identify bottlenecks, risks, isolated individuals, and the diversity of the network.

In the case of Sophia's influencers, these individuals were invited to participate as ambassadors for the "Lean Meetings" initiative due to their high degree of influence.

​

The analysis also provided insights into collaboration patterns, such as:

  • Cost of meetings

  • Average meeting time by seniority and demographic criteria

  • Percentage of Lean Meeting methodology usage

  • Number of received and sent emails by Directors and Managers to analyze productivity

  • Level of participation in meetings

  • Types of meetings (scheduled, spontaneous, recurring, others)

  • Time spent in meetings per week

  • Number of collaboration hours

 

 

Second project:

Relationship between benefits and level of performance of the sales team

 

The organization wanted to understand the correlation between non-compliant benefits provided to the sales teams and the number of units sold.

​

As a first step, since the sales process is not direct, a correlation was conducted to determine if the number of sales visits was a predictor of units sold. Since the sales level does not depend directly on the sales executives, the relationship between the number of client visits and units sold was analyzed.

​

After validating that sales visits are a predictor of units sold, "sales visits" were used as the business variable to correlate with the benefits. This approach generated several insights to understand the extent to which each benefit influenced the number of units sold, acting as a driver.

​

Additionally, the optimal point for the number of daily visits that predicts the highest number of units sold was also identified. This data was utilized by the Sales department to calibrate targets and create new sales practices.

​

From the Human Resources department, the client was able to understand and prioritize which benefits were truly driving the sales executives' performance.
