Journey of the Heart by Charlotte Ellington
Social networks have recently emerged in the management discipline as a unique way of studying individuals and groups in organizations. While traditionally used in the analysis of un-bounded networks, applying social network analysis techniques to bounded work groups and organizational teams has become increasingly popular. Past research has established relationships between in-degree social network centrality and individual performance as well as social network density and overall group performance. This field study, conducted at a military training course, attempted to further refine this social network-performance relationship by modeling characteristics of both the formal and informal work group networks in relation to performance at the individual as well as group levels. A sample of 406 students in 28 groups showed empirical evidence that individual performance is positively related to centrality in the formal social network while a negative relationship was found between performance and centrality in the informal social network.
Ellington, Charlotte: - Charlotte Ellington resides in St. Albans, Missouri, near the very spot where Captain Meriwether Lewis scaled a cliff and nearly fell to his death in the very early days of the Expedition. Her early fascination with the Lewis and Clark Expedition began years ago when she visited the Museum of Westward Expansion located beneath St. Louis' iconic Arch. The walk-through exhibit featured colorful murals with inspirational quotes from the diaries of Lewis and Clark as well as recreated scenes with life-sized stuffed animals. Of course, Sacagawea played a crucial role in the narrative, and Charlotte has always had an interest in noteworthy Native American women. Her first two books, Beloved Mother: The Story of Nancy Ward and Dancing Leaf, portray strong Cherokee women. In addition to reading and writing, Charlotte enjoys spending time with family, which includes her husband, two sons, two daughters-in-law, and four grandchildren.
