Boston NetWorkshop Dec. 2nd - Social Network Analysis

Interested to learn more about social network analysis? On Friday, December 2nd from 9:00am - 12:30pm, Patti Anklam will be presenting The NetWorkShop: Social and Value Network Analysis at the Boston Facilitators Roundtable. This session will share how a network lens can shed light on how human networks are structured and how technologies can enhance our ability to collaborate and co-create. For facilitators, it offers possibilities of new ways of thinking about client work as well as leadership coaching. This workshop provides a clear presentation of basic network concepts, including:

  • Reflective exercises in creating and interpreting network maps of relationships (organizational and personal) using network concepts
  • An introduction to value networking analysis, with a focus on mapping roles and deliverables (gives and gets) in an organizational ecosystem
  • A short overview of how social media (Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn) is altering the landscape of how people create and work in networks.

Takeaways

  • New ways of thinking about organizational problems (through a network lens)
  • A new language to help you support organizational change through the use of networks (staff and teams, i.e. work teams, exec. teams, departments)
  • Be more effective in assessing org. dynamics and potential leadership problems
  • Better questions to ask someone you’re coaching about how their network can help them be more effective

The workshop fee is $25 and will be held in downtown Boston. Please contact us if you would like to register and we can send you the information.
