All of these formal relationships can be illustrated in an organization chart. Organization Chart, or Organizational Chart, Organigram, Organogram, Org Chart, all mean the same thing. It shows the hierarchy and authority, roles and responsibilities, and functions and relationships within an organization in a clear and concise manner. An organization chart also helps to help new employees understand and get to know the company. (By informal organizational structure, we mean the real relationships between organizational levels that exist in everyday work.)
Linear Functional Organizational StructureToday, there are constant accusations that the existing organizational structure design has many limitations and shortcomings. At the same time, organizational configurations have been given a number of fashionable trappings, such as: Networked Organizations, Transnational Organizations, Front-Back Organizations, Boundaryless Organizations, and the Role of the Organization. Boundaryless Organizations, Learning Organizations, Virtual Organizations, and Social Networks, to name a few.
However, organizational design will continue to be an extremely important and challenging task for company executives because of its impact on all aspects of strategy, marketing, decision-making, communication, financial investment, and leadership. Therefore, no matter how the organizational structure develops and changes, the importance of the organizational chart will not change, a concise chart can help people quickly and accurately grasp useful information. The organization chart may change in appearance, different from the traditional tree diagram.
