Community Analytics Chosen as a Panelist for HR.com’s Latest Webinar
BALTIMORE (May 2008) – Entitled “The Power of Human Networks®,” Community Analytics’ CEO Myra Norton will team up with Ken Boughrum of Stromberg Consulting and Ketchum Communication’s Rob Flaherty to host HR.com’s latest webinar designed for Human Resource and Marketing professionals. The webcast is scheduled to air on June 5th and will be made available for listeners to access the information session beginning at 11am ET.
The interactive session will focus on developing more effective ways to engage your workforce and influence key people in your communities through the use of Network Analysis. In order to accomplish this, Norton, Boughrum, and Flaherty plan to explain how this research process enables you to map informal networks in order to more efficiently shape opinion, speed decision making, and influence behavior within organizations.
HR.com intends for its audience to not only learn more about the history and methodology of social network analysis; but more importantly, educate them on how important social networks are in today’s hyper-communication environment. Listeners will be able to take away concrete examples and key insights that will allow them to improve business performance and efficiency.
“As organizations seek to achieve greater levels of customer loyalty and drive deeper employee engagement, a concrete understanding of the influence that human networks have in the workplace will become essential for driving organizational effectiveness. I look forward to working with Ken [Boughrum] and Rob [Flaherty] and I hope that listeners are able to take away practical action items to help improve their business strategies,” said Myra Norton.
