Abstract
This study examines how early relationships in company networks may predict performance. Establishing early centrality predicts later performance, as measured by net profit in a business game simulation run with 342 participants formed into 70 teams functioning as companies over a year. The paper also defines a way of classifying centrality trajectories in social networks, providing a method that can be used more generally to predict network change.
