A Study on the Informal Networks in Organizations: An Application of Social Network Analysis

Chang-Hyeon Choi

Although the formal organization describes authority lines, much of the influence and the actual work is accomplished through the informal structure of friends, contacts, and accidental communications, Despite this recognition, recommendations for the design of organizations have been limited for the most part, to formal organizations. A small number of researchers has called attention to the issue of design of informal organization. In this article, I propose to present a panorama of the different methods that exist today for the establishment of a network of relationships in the core of an organization. This network of relationships resembles the 　informal organizational chart, on assuming that the phenomena of influence are directly related to the structures of existing relationships.
