Nuts and bolts of social network analysis

Posted on 10:26 by Unknown
Tomorrow 1pm EST I am leading a conference call on "The Nuts and Bolts of SNA" with Patti Anklam and Valdis Krebs. Email me if you want to register for this free call. Here are some highlights:

What are good questions to ask in a network survey? That is the burning question in the new ONA community of practice. We'll discuss that topic in depth, early in tomorrow's Jump Start Call #3.

Then we'll talk about how to administer a network survey--including the cheapest and easiest way that I know, which is to copy and adapt this free ONA online network survey template hosted by SurveyMonkey (accessible under account "ona@connectiveassociates.com" with password "ona").
Then I'll spend a bit of time on one of my favorite topics, network visualization, and encourage listeners to go beyond "plate of spaghetti" pictures and create images with story-telling power:And we'll end with a rich discussion about what action to take after the organizational network analysis is done, and it's time to do something about it.
