21 managers of a company of just over 100 employees manufactured high-tech equipment on the west coast of the United States. Three types of ties were collected:
friends: managers' answers to the question "Who is your friend?"
advice: managers' answers to the question "To whom do you go to for advice?"
reports: "To whom do you report?" based on company reports
The data is anonymised, but four nodal attributes are included:
age: the manager's age in years
tenure: the manager's length of service
level: the manager's level in the corporate hierarchy, where 3 = CEO, 2 = Vice President, and 1 = manager
dept: one of four departments, B, C, D, E, with the CEO alone in A
