Learn about Organizational Network Analysis (ONA), the groundbreaking science that powers Confirm, creating fairer performance reviews in the new world of work.
What is organizational network analysis?
Solving today's challenges around measuring performance requires modernizing the century-old practice of performance reviews. The world of work has evolved. How we measure performance should too.
An effective method of measuring performance in today's networked world is Organizational network analysis (ONA). ONA measures and visualizes workplace interactions, analyzing their frequency and strength. When applied to performance management, ONA gives leaders visibility into the true impact of their employees.
How ONA works for performance managemENT
At the start of a performance review, employees are asked a few research-tested ONA questions. Examples include:
Who at your organization do you go to for help and advice?
Who do you believe is making an outstanding impact?
Who do you believe needs additional support or attention?
When this data is analyzed, it gives leaders visibility into who their high-performers are and those who need additional support. With these insights, they can confidently make promotions, PIPs, and retention decisions based on clear data.
ONA-powered performance reviews drive business impact
HR leaders want to drive business outcomes through impactful people decisions. ONA helps them achieve this in a data-driven way.
