Despite the recent interest on how social networks contribute to
the flow of information in organizations, there is little
understanding about the positions of actors and the role technology
plays. The aim of this book is to show how social network analysis
can be employed to identify social roles, e.g. stars, team players,
reaching and bridging actors. This book provides an overview of
literature in information theory and technology, and social
networks on- and offline. Then, a case study is outlined of a
high-tech company that analyzes disconnections by looking at
cliques, clusters, and gaps. We establish means to promote existing
information and knowledge networks, and to help develop a
beneficial knowledge sharing culture. This book will help managers,
human resources departments, and professionals improve business
processes by providing an assessment tool of the existing social
networks and a model to improve information flows. This book is
also a great resource for management, IT, and information courses
as it provides a case study of a high-tech sector company helping
identify critical pathways in the information networks and
suggesting ways of strengthening them.
