We know that networks exist. But what we haven’t known until recently is how to work with them. A new article helps leaders understand just how to do so.
The new NTL Handbook of Organization Development and Change features thirty-four chapters designed to help leaders and practitioners bring about meaningful change in organizations. Partnering Resources’ founder Maya Townsend contributed “Organization Network Dynamics and Analysis” to the book. The article covers:
- Three kinds of organization networks: connectivity, action, and alignment networks
- Critical connectors: the five to ten percent of nodes in a network that have disproportionate influence over the whole and how to leverage them
- How to use networks to support organization change, team performance, and leadership
- How to conduct a network analysis, including defining project scope, gathering data, creating network visualizations, and analyzing data
- Using value network analysis to map complex, open systems like ecosystems and issues-based initiatives
The book is now available on Amazon and .
