Abstract

Quick identifying potentially significant persons within the organisation structure is constantly becoming more and more important. Key players such as brokers are with no doubt one of the most important actors, loss of which cannot be acceptable by the organisation itself, especially nowadays, when the competition on the market is growing rapidly. Enterprises having more than thousands of employees struggle to detect the most valuable persons using traditional approaches such as managerial surveys. The paper presents an approach that allows to shorten time needed to identify potential key brokers, and reduce the probability to make wrong guesses. The aim of this article is to analyze the problem of potential brokers identification with the usage of graph visualization algorithms. The paper presents modified Fruchterman–Reingold algorithm, which emphasizes the positions of brokers in the informal network.
