An organizational chart:
An organizational chart is a visual communication tool. Charts help to organize the workplace while outlining the direction of management control of subordinates. Increasingly a necessary management tool, organizational charts are particularly useful when companies reorganize, embark on a merger or acquisition, or need an easy way to visualize a large number of employees.
An organizational chart is a diagram that shows the structure of an organization as well as the relationships and relative ranks of its positions.
Organizational charts are used for:
- organizational and supervisory communication,
- workforce planning,
- departmental or team planning,
- resource planning,
- change management,
- organizational restructuring or redesign, and
- job analysis.
- Org chart can display basic information such as name and title, or details such as department and cost center
- An org chart makes it easier for people to comprehend and digest large amounts of information as a visual picture rather than as a table of names and numbers.
- Provide the greatest value when used as a framework for managing change and communicating current organizational structure.
- Provide managers with specific departmental information that can then be used as a baseline for planning, budgeting and workforce modeling
- The charts typically are pyramidal in shape. They show the person in charge at the top. Below them are clustered their subordinates, usually in progressively smaller boxes. Usually, individuals shown on the same horizontal level in the Org Chart are perceived to be "peers" within the organization.
