Abstract

The proposed study is to analyze and visualize properties of the social network constructed from a dataset based on Enron mail dataset, and utilize sentiment analysis as an additional source of information to study employees’ relationships in a company. We concluded that when social network analysis is used in conjunction with emotion detection, it is possible to see the positive or negative areas where the company must work to promote a healthy organizational culture and uncover possible organizational issues in a timely manner.
