Why should I enroll in this program?

As HR professionals, we know that the strength of an organization lies in its people. However, current methods do not allow you to gain insights into the inner workings of an organization.

With Organizational Network Analysis (ONA), a growing trend in HR Analytics, you will have a powerful technique that will allow you to analyze the flow of information and collaboration between groups, increasing productivity and innovation for your organization.

What is ONA?

ONA refers to Organizational Network Analysis, a method for studying communication and socio-technical networks within an organization. This technique creates statistical and graphical models of people, groups, knowledge and resources of organizational systems. It is based on social network theory and, more specifically, dynamic network analysis.
