Chapter 1: What is it?
Organizational charts serve as valuable tools for businesses of all sizes and industries.

Organizational charts serve as the backbone of an organization’s structure. They provide a holistic view of the various departments, teams, and individuals that make up the organization. By understanding the relationships and dependencies between different parts of the organization, leaders can identify bottlenecks, streamline processes, and allocate resources more effectively. Moreover, organizational charts promote transparency and accountability, as everyone can clearly see their position within the hierarchy and understand how their work fits into the bigger picture. This level of clarity fosters a sense of purpose and unity among employees, ultimately leading to increased productivity and success.

Firstly, gather all the necessary information about the organizational structure, including department names, positions, and reporting relationships.
Next, choose a suitable software or tool to create the org chart, such as Microsoft PowerPoint or specialized org chart software. Begin by creating a basic template with the highest level of management at the top and add subsequent levels below. Insert names, titles, and any additional details into the appropriate boxes.
Lastly, review and refine the org chart, ensuring its accuracy, clarity, and readability.

Watch this Video.
Organizational charts provide a visual representation of an organization’s structure, hierarchies, and reporting relationships. They serve as a valuable tool for managers and employees alike, offering a clear understanding of the roles and responsibilities within a company. By mastering the art of organizational charts, businesses can streamline communication, enhance productivity, and foster a collaborative work environment.
As You Watch This Video
As you watch this video to understand the available template;
1. Don’t let your organizational chart be a static thing on a piece of paper, it should be dynamic, updated, current and created to identify key staff members and the roles or responsibilities and what they are accountable for.
2. Keep it current as you grow and accessible to the organization for use.
3. Keep it simple yet relevant. Avoid overarching, you don’t have to include everyone. The larger the organization the more important it is to include the 4 key areas of any organization; selling, processing, fulfillment and accounting.
4. Include the following; who is responsible, why or what they control (those listed below them) and what they are accountable for.
Still need to visualize, understand the design of an organization chart and how the method is tested, see the following case studies.
Case Study 1 - Led to Manage LLC
Macro Level View
How we used this format
1. We started with multidisciplinary team and a process map of the organization (see Strategic Planning Creation Course – Process Map), then determined who would be responsible for the key customer-oriented processes (COPs), support-oriented processes (SOPs) and management-oriented processes (MOPs).
2. Job titles, appropriate to the level and responsibility (i.e administrator, manager, developer, instructor, partner).
3. Where clarification was needed their area of accountabiltiy was added to the area nest to their title (i.e. top management, operations management, customer interface – in or out, development , online and off site)
Lessons Learned
Opportunities for improvement
1. It became obvious that the owner played multiple roles in the organization.
2. The multifunctional team then conducted a brainstorming session to affinity categories (see at the end of each course package – Brainstorming / Affinity Diagram) what activities needed dedicated staffing and which ones could be outsourcedtx external partners.
3. After a discussion with the multidisciplinary team , we understood the short-term and long-term action plans needed to improve this process and conducted a force field analysis (see at the end of each course package – Force Field Analysis) to determine how to strengthen the driving forces for this change and address the restraining forces acquiring these needed resources.
