How to Use MsVisio 2002 (Create Organizational Chart)
A favorite tool in making Organizational Chart is Ms Visio. Updating and making organizational charts is a regular part of my job. The company I work for changes its set-up and structure every month due to attrition and hiring. I maintain 100+ organizational charts every month.The following presentation is also posted in my scribd account.
An organizational chart (often called organization chart, org chart, organigram(me), or organogram(me)) is a diagram that shows the structure of an organization and the relationships and relative ranks of its parts and positions/jobs. The term is also used for similar diagrams, for example ones showing the different elements of a field of knowledge or a group of languages. The French Encyclopédie had one of the first organizational charts of knowledge in general.
Overview
An organizational chart of a company usually shows the managers and sub-workers who make up an organization. It also shows the relationships between directors : managing director chief executive officer: various departments... In many large companies the organization chart can be large and incredibly complicated and is therefore sometimes dissected into smaller charts for each individual department within the organization.
There are three different types of organization charts:
* Hierarchical
* Matrix
* Flat (also known as Horizontal)
Limitations
There are several limitations of organizational charts:
* If updated manually, organisational charts can very quickly become out-of-date, especially in large organizations that change their staff regularly.
* They only show 'formal relationships' and tells nothing of the pattern of human (social) relationships which develop. They also often do not show horizontal relationships.
* They provide little information about the managerial style adopted (e.g. 'autocratic', 'democratic' or an intermediate style)
* The best structure for one type of business may not be the best for another. The best structure for a new business may not be suitable as the business expands.
* In some cases, an organigraph may be more appropriate, particularly if one wants to show non-linear, non-hierarchical relationships in an organization.
* It often does not include customers.
