“Standard” HR
11/05/2017 - Claudio Borile
GraphConnect London
4
Historically the organization is
resumed in a pyramidal chart,
from the CEO/manager to the
working base and neatly
divided into departments,
groups, hierarchical chain, etc.

“Standard” HR
A company is a complex
organism, composed of
many different interacting
components.

Data-driven HR

In the last few years data analytics and quantitative
methods have been applied to many areas of business,
marketing and production to help making better choices.
People are rightfully considered the most important
assent in an organization, and why shouldn’t we exploit
data to better know this asset?

People Analytics

People Analytics is a data-driven approach to the management
of the workplace for a better knowledge of the real organizational
structure, practices and processes.
• Organization
• People Review
• HR Transformation
• Talent Management
• Perception vs. Reality
• Monitoring
• Early detection
• Top and weak performers

The moOn approach
moOn: MultidimensiOnal cOmpany Navigator
is a People Analytics tool imagined not to
substitute, but to support the traditional HR
methodologies with the help of quantitative
measures.
Multidimensional: We use diversified sources
of data to highlight different aspects of the
organization and the people in it, and a
coherent framework allows to navigate
through these many layers of information.

Mail Network – Graph construction
11/05/2017 - Claudio Borile
GraphConnect London
15
We keep only “relevant” communications (~30% of total)
Atomic resolution for internal addresses, domain level for externals
A directed and weighted graph is extracted where nodes are
internal people or external domains and edges represents single
mail threads

Database – E-mails
11/05/2017 - Claudio Borile
GraphConnect London
16
The Neo4J graphDB stores all the
information from the
preprocessed dataset.
The schema allows to easily and
rapidly gather all time-
dependent, aggregate data for
later visualization, and the
navigable graphs, with standard
queries.

Surveys
11/05/2017 - Claudio Borile

34
Surveys allow us to add a layer of informal and personal network
of connections between people in the organization.
Easily compiled and submitted through a ad hoc web platform,
surveys are automatically integrated in moOn and elaborated.

Network Metrics
11/05/2017 - Claudio Borile
GraphConnect London
38
Depending on which level of network we are focusing on, we can
exploit its topological structure to infer information on the behavior
and characteristics of people. Reference figures (e.g. innovators,
mentors, etc.), top performers, bridges, or the frontier and bulk
people with respect to the exterior of the organization or of a
department. We can see the real interaction and composition of
working groups, or how to easily reach a customer. For the
succession problem we can compare the network structure of
similar workers, compare it with other data like skills, seniority,
contractual level, etc. to have the best replacement.

Conclusions
11/05/2017 - Claudio Borile
GraphConnect London
39
• Simple sources of information and data can help us know and
manage our organization better.
• Multidimensionality gives us the opportunity to scrutinize our
organization on various levels, from the formal to the informal,
and compare them to the official structures and hierarchies.
• Fine and coarse grained analytics give us ready-to-use
information from single employees to the whole business.
• The specific choice of the Neo4j graphDB helps us to organize
and query the great amount of data that we obtain for later
processing.

  • 38. aizoOn | Ver. 1.2 Network Metrics 11/05/2017 - Claudio Borile GraphConnect London 38 Depending on which level of network we are focusing on, we can exploit its topological structure to infer information on the behavior and characteristics of people. Reference figures (e.g. innovators, mentors, etc.), top performers, bridges, or the frontier and bulk people with respect to the exterior of the organization or of a department. We can see the real interaction and composition of working groups, or how to easily reach a customer. For the succession problem we can compare the network structure of similar workers, compare it with other data like skills, seniority, contractual level, etc. to have the best replacement.
  • 39. aizoOn | Ver. 1.2 Conclusions 11/05/2017 - Claudio Borile GraphConnect London 39 • Simple sources of information and data can help us know and manage our organization better. • Multidimensionality gives us the opportunity to scrutinize our organization on various levels, from the formal to the informal, and compare them to the official structures and hierarchies. • Fine and coarse grained analytics give us ready-to-use information from single employees to the whole business. • The specific choice of the Neo4j graphDB helps us to organize and query the great amount of data that we obtain for later processing.
