A distributed organizational analyzer configured to determine characteristics of an organization based on tasks performed by both clients and servers is provided. The characteristics determined by the distributed organizational analyzer may include relationship trends, emerging topics and other organizational intelligence related information. The clients are configured to generate profiles for users associated with the organization. Each profile is generated from client data, such as emails, messages, local documents, newsgroup and weblog data, or the like. The server aggregates the profiles to identify interaction patterns and keywords that are popular in the organization. The server then analyzes the interaction patterns and popular keywords to determine relationship trends between users and groups in the organization, and emerging topics that are important to the organization. Since the clients are performing the data mining and profile generation tasks, client data that is restricted may be accounted by the analysis without sacrificing privacy and security. Also, by mining and aggregating the near-real-time interactions between users, the distributed organizational analyzer may provide a responsive feedback mechanism that can more quickly and accurately provide organizational intelligence.
