Organization chart

An organization chart is a visual representation of the organizational structure of a company or organization.

It graphically shows the hierarchies, departments and relationships between individual positions or employees. At a glance, it is clear who is responsible for which area, which communication and decision-making channels exist and who reports to whom.
This structure helps to clearly define responsibilities within the company and ensures transparency.

Organization charts are a helpful tool for new employees who need to quickly find out about the organizational structure, as well as for managers who can use them to control more efficient communication and decision-making processes. They also provide a better overview when planning restructuring or managing resources. Organizational charts are also often useful for external partners or stakeholders, as they provide a quick overview of the company structure.

In practice, organization charts can take various forms, from simple hierarchical representations to more complex models for matrix organizations in which employees are assigned to multiple departments or projects. In any case, the organization chart serves as a tool to visualize structures and make internal processes easier to understand.
