Question 1
From the visualization and analysis, we can safely conclude that Kasios International is not growing and is quite stable over the years, as the trend of calls, emails, purchases remain same. We can say that company has not expanded its resources over 2 and half years. But the company is getting more organized in terms of formal meetings as number of meetings shows increasing trend over the period of 2 years, specially after October 2015 which can be an indicator of changes in higher management for the organization or any other organizational structural changes.

- Based on the analysis, we interpreted Richard Fox and Lindsy Henion are very prominent employees among the suspicious group.
- Among all other 20 suspicious employees, Richard Fox has the biggest network outside the suspicious group as well.
