Abstract:
Organizational network analysis (ONA) consists of gathering data on information sharing and

connectivity in a group, calculating network measures, creating network maps, and using this

information to analyze and improve the functionality of the group. ONA was conducted for two

functional groups in the WSDOT. The overall organizational health of these networks, as defined by

network indicators, is positive, with a large percentage of individuals indicating others in their network

were effective at providing information necessary to get their work done. Some individuals were over

or under-connected in their networks. Both networks would benefit from identifying network functions

and members more explicitly through a accessible and stable resource. Development of communities

of practice in core strategic functions of both groups would facilitate productive interactions.
