A consulting company used organizational network analysis to analyze email data and employee surveys to understand what team characteristics led to higher client impact scores. They found that teams with an individual central in the email network, teams with someone strong in managerial skills, and teams incorporating new members not previously worked with experienced greater client impact. The recommendations were to include information brokers to connect teams, leverage managerial individuals, and incorporate new personnel each year.

This session was an introduction to managing communication on change projects. It was delivered on the second day of Apeiron Communication's conference "Good communication starts from within"
Social software lets employees connect and share in new ways, and can dramatically improve the effectiveness of your organization. But social technologies like microblogging, social networking, automated activity feeds, social spreadsheets, wikis, etc. are new to most organizations, and most IT departments don’t have experience with how to successfully implement them.
Success with social software involves a lot more than simply finding the product that best fits your needs. It involves framing the problem appropriately in the first place, defining your business goals, and choosing a rollout methodology designed to meet those goals. It involves selling your CFO, changing behavior across your organization, and more.
This paper is designed to help you learn from the mistakes of others before you, so you can avoid the common pitfalls of social software, and get fast business value.
According to Gartner, 70% of social implementations fail because they lack a business purpose. When it comes to harnessing the power of social software, a focus on business value is required. This whitepaper defines a strategic framework for gaining business value from social software. It outlines six successful rollout strategies. Each of the six approaches delivers different business results, and has a different level of risk. And most importantly, each has different requirements to succeed. To be successful with social software, you need to choose the rollout strategy that is best for your organization, and understand its requirements for success.

A fundamental lack of CLARITY is often at the root of inefficient processes, errors, poor decisions, and mistrust across the organization. Worse, it's one of the reasons why improvement approaches don't produce greater results and why organizational performance often lags behind desired targets.

A network tends to connect workers and members of staff at different levels of the company. This network tends to create a good and effective workflow within the company, hence a company network and workflow go hand in hand. When creating a network and a workflow of a company, the workers and members of staff working duration must be considered in order to achieve a company objective (Moretti, 2017).Also, the mode of employment which may be permanent or temporary/laying down of workers within a short period of time, to a large extent determines a company’s network and workflow.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.

Blinded background information on the company, their reorg and the goal of working with ANI.
Post-acquisition (though many lessons can be learned before and during the change initiative)Company wanted to analyze these 5 criteria to determine what drove collaboration post-change.Main concern: Is the old structure (“legacy affiliation”) still driving collaboration dynamics? In other words, were they successful? Did the change work?
From email data, a network can be created by looking at the exchange of emails between individuals. In this analysis, both the volume of emails between individuals, as well as the time between responses relative to each individual’s typical email patterns were used to create connections, or relationships, between individuals.
The initial hypothesis was that 3 months of email data would be required for an analysis. The graph to the right demonstrates the changes by adding additional weeks of email data. Around week 12, the correlation begins to plateau, supporting the initial hypothesis.
Repeat slide to remind audience of the initial question (ie was the legacy group still driving collaboration?)
No, in fact, sub-functions were correctly driving employee communication. The reorg was successful in changing the collaborating away from the old structure into the new structure.
Emphasis that although this case study was about post-change, ONA can help change initiatives at any stage of the process.
