Abstract

A computerized system and method for evaluating relationships between individuals and within organizations based on electronic evaluations of personal interactions. At least one of the participants in the personal interactions completes an electronic evaluation by providing a binary level input in response to a statement or question to indicate whether the interaction with another individual is favorable or not.

Claims (12)

1. A computerized method of evaluating interactions among members of a network, comprising:

registering the members with the network;

accessing identity data from an electronic file associated with each member;

retrieving, from electronic devices of the members of the network, event data related to interactions between a reviewer and a reviewee, both the reviewer and the reviewee being a member of the network, wherein the event data includes a meeting schedule and an email;

linking the retrieved event data and identifying an interaction between the reviewer and the reviewee based on the linked event data;

determining whether the reviewee is in close proximity with the reviewer based on near-field signals of the reviewer's electronic device and the reviewee's electronic device;

transmitting, upon a determination by the determining step that a near-field signal from the electronic device of the reviewee is received by the electronic device of the reviewer, a notification to the electronic device of the reviewer to prompt the reviewer to evaluate the interaction with the reviewee;

storing input of the reviewer in response to the notification as an electronic evaluation of the interaction;

generating a personal social graph of the reviewee based on stored electronic evaluations,

wherein the personal social graph indicates a strength of relationships of the reviewee with other members of the network; and the generating step determines a proximity between the reviewee and another member on the personal social graph based on a frequency of interactions with the reviewee.

2. The computerized method of claim 1 , wherein the near-field signal includes a Bluetooth signal.

3. The computerized method of claim 1 , wherein the near-field signal includes a wireless signal.
