HR Glossary
What is Organizational Network Analysis (ONA)?
A method that maps and measures how information, collaboration, and influence flow through an organization by analyzing communication patterns, meeting data, and relationship networks to reveal the informal structures that actually drive how work gets done, often uncovering dynamics invisible on the org chart.
Why it matters in hiring
Organizational Network Analysis (ONA) comes up whenever teams compare candidates, set policy or report on people data. Getting the definition right keeps decisions consistent, which is the same reason springhire scores every applicant against the same criteria rather than on impression.
