Who We Are?

Polinode is a SaaS company that provides both large enterprises and consultants to enterprises with tools to visualize and analyze the informal relationships (i.e. who works with whom) within organisations. We work at the cutting edge of a space called organizational network analysis and are proud to call some of the largest and most innovative companies in the world as well as over 20 of the most forward-thinking consulting organizations our clients. 

Within enterprises we often work directly with People Analytics teams to support applications such as: identifying cultural influencers, change management, succession planning, supporting collaboration, addressing overload and understanding / improving diversity and inclusion. Our mission is to improve the way that organisations function and to help drive positive change.
