Covid19 times emphasize the importance of upskilling and reskilling. For individuals, it is crucial for staying relevant in a changing world of work. For leaders, it is essential for offering the right strategies to new challenges. I leveraged these times, too, to widen my learning scope, and particularly in the field of Organization Network Analysis.

My familiarity with this methodology started a decade ago. However, so much has changed since then. The organization’s needs evolved, new data sources emerged, and tech companies launched new solutions. I invite you to join me and leverage the resources I collect on my journey. Base your own choice on your professional perspective: an analyst, data scientist, HR practitioner, or executive. This domain is relevant to all. You may not develop or program solutions. However, it would help if you understood the applications implemented in your organizations.

I’ll update the list whenever I find new resources, including books, courses, and tutorials. (Work in progress. First Published: October 14th, 2020. Last Update: August 24th, 2021. Total resources mentioned: 15). In case you are interested to find tech providers in this domain, check my HR-tech list (the 8th section: Organizational Design, Networks, Teams and Collaboration)
