Description
Objectives
The course aims to introduce a clear theoretical framework for detecting the organizational culture & climate and integrating it with the social network analysis (SNA). We will use a quantitative approach to measure the measured parameters and verify the interventions' effectiveness. We will also show how to create dashboards and visual diagrams to represent the climate and the network.
Participants
HR personnel interested in preparing organizational climate and social network analysis.
Program
The course is structured in two parts.
We will introduce the Organizational Climate Analysis (OCA) in the first part. We will use Quinn and Rohrbaugh's concurrent value framework (CVF) as an organizational taxonomy. We will see what dimensions can measure organizational climate and explore how measurements can be represented using charts and dashboards. We will use OLAP tools (like Tableau) to analyze and visualize the data.
The second part will introduce Sociometry and Social Network Analysis (SNA). We will explore how to use these approaches to understand the degree of interconnectedness between the organization members. We will see how SNA can reveal non-formal organizations, non-formal leadership, organizational clans, and, most importantly, the degree of connection between geographically distributed organizations.
This approach is precious when assessing organizational cohesion and when its members work remotely (smart working/teleworking). We will use dedicated software to analyze and visually represent social diagrams.
