Liberate your Time by Developing your Company Organization Chart

Your company's organizational strategy is centred around the

development and communication of your Organization Chart.

The Organization Chart takes the form of a graphical

representation of the positions in your company. The top

Position in the company (i.e. CEO or General Manager) is

placed at the top of the Organization Chart. The various

layers of management and supporting Positions are then

arranged under the relevant management Positions right down

to the lowest levels of the Organization.



Your Organization Chart not only defines the Positions in

your business but the Employees assigned to those Positions.

The Organization Chart clearly communicates the management

and reporting structure of your business, specifically who

an Employee assigned to a Position reports to directly.



It is extremely useful when developing your Organization

Chart to take the time to design how you want your company

to be structured when it is 'finished' being developed. This

approach will have the effect of setting a path for the

development of your company. Once defined you and your

Employees take the actions required to make it a reality.



Develop the Positions in your Organization Chart to be

representative of specific work roles in your company. You

should not develop your Organisation Chart based on the

employees you currently have in the company, rather you

should develop the Positions based on logical groupings of

work. One of the benefits of developing an Organisation

Chart is that it enables your company to become less

dependent on specific employees and more dependent on the

structure that you have developed.



An Effective Organization Chart:

- Communicates to your staff where you plan to take the business.

- Makes it easy to show new employees where they fit into

the business.

- Gives you the opportunity to evaluate your current employees

and how they fit into the future of your business.

- Shows existing employees what options they have for career advancement.

- Leaves no question as to who an Employee assigned to a Position

should be reporting to.



Depending on where you are in the development of your

company you will probably be filling many of the positions

yourself. By choosing a position and actually defining and

documenting the systems the position is responsible for you

can readily employ someone to fill the position. This allows

you to begin the development of other positions in the

company.



You will get to a point where all of the positions in the

Organization Chart are developed and you will have employees

assigned to these positions. This allows you to begin taking

a more strategic role in the development of your business or

to take a step back and enjoy the freedom that a well

defined business allows you. This is a great place to reach

and is a huge step in your business's development and your

own personal development.
