Are your key players pulling together and in the right direction?
Do you really know who the key players in your team are? Do you agonize over discords in your team or between specific teams in your company? For example, the never-ending battles between sales and development, or managers, who press on results to achieve short-term goals, and HR partners who are hopelessly trying to let them know that they are damaging long-term relationships in the team? These discords are often caused by your team leaders (be it formal or informal leader) pulling in a different direction. Another reason that often appears is that company ignores the existence and implications of its informal structures. These have a far greater impact on the company’s direction and development than a formal organizational structure will ever have. Informal leaders will seldom realize the influence they have on their surroundings, and so they can be unknowingly (or deliberately) obstructing efforts of the formal management. Find out who your employees regard as a key player in your team and what are the connections and relationships between them. With Frank, it will be easy, simple and fast. You can have these results within days.
Do you know who is most respected in your team?
Unfortunately, you will not be able to find that out from your official organizational structure. This structure is rigid and seldom reflects the reality in your team. It can be useful for external subjects to inform them with whom in the company they can deal. For example, if a customer needs to reach to sales manager. The firm, or a particular team, is far greatly influenced by an informal structure. It is a network of connections and relationships that each of us creates to reach goals defined for our team effectively. Based on personal and day to day experience we know best to whom reach out to when we need advice, whom we can rely on to follow through on a given task. We know best who inspires us or who will cheer us up and sweeten our day at work. Do not underestimate the significance and implications of your informal structure. Reveal the people who are really respected in the team regardless of their official role in your organization. Frank will show them to you, simply and fast.  
Are you satisfied with employee adaptation process?
With Frank, you can very quickly and easily verify how well are your new hires able to become a part of a team. You can also check who are the people that are actually taking care of them, who help them and with whom they have created a connection and a relationship. Are they connected to an individual who was assigned to help them to adapt, be it a “buddy” or their manager? Are they successfully connected to the social network around that person? You can simply check all of these facts in social connections graphs that FRANK presents for particular areas. All you need to do is to start a short survey and look at the data you can have within hours or days. Each “snapshot” of your team’s informal structure will enable you to observe developing connections of your newcomers within the team (company). Connect your newcomers to your key players amongst your staff and allow them faster and smoother adaptation within the team and company.
Are you investing in the right people?
The necessity to educate, develop and coach your employees is indisputable. The important thing is also to consider who the people we should develop and in what way are? The rule in most of the teams is that 20 percent of individuals create 80 percent of the results. Those are your key players. Those you want to keep on board. Into those, you want to invest primarily. Investment into developing your key people will have a considerably greater effect than investment into an individual who is on the edge, outside of the social network and only trying to “get through the day”. Respect and influence of the key players enable them to easily pass on the newly acquired knowledge further into the team which means that you also invest indirectly into all the people that are connected to your key players. The effect of such an investment multiplies when you invest into the right people. Utilize FRANK to find out who they are.
Do you need to orient yourself quickly within a new team?
Often you can find yourself in a situation where you need to simply and promptly orient in a new team. Maybe you were just hired as a new manager, you are acquiring a new company, or you just want to understand people’s connections and relationships in the team you want to work with and develop as an HR partner, but there is simply not enough time to get to know them better personally. Choice of the wrong people, to begin with, those with minimal respect and influence, can turn out as a complete waste of time and energy. You need to use your time and energy effectively. Create a “snapshot” of the informal structure and social connections of the new team. Find out who are the most respected and key people with a considerable influence in the team and begin to work with them at first. Gain their backing and trust and save yourself an unnecessary torment. You can reach the rest of the team through them much more easily. Let FRANK help you out to an efficient star

How we do it

We ask people from a particular team five simple questions related to the basic pillars of successful teamwork

Step

You will get a Sociogram of your team together with other useful insights

Step

In the analysis, we compare your formal structure with Frank informal structure and interpret these findings for your HR and management on a workshop.

On an individual workshop, we will teach you how to read the Sociogram correctly and how to interpret and work with the Frank data.

You can buy analysis with an interpretation workshop where we will go through the Frank results and help you to develop actionable steps leading to a better performance of your team.
