The importance of a
business organization chart
Companies need to have a good organizational chart in order to have a quick visualization of their own structure. In this way, it is much easier to analyze the entity’s own situation, as well as the different departments and teams that make it up.
This is key to optimize the internal communication of the organization, but also so that customers and suppliers know who to contact in each case. Optimizing these corporate organization charts is a matter for the Human Resources department.
How to make a business organization chart?
As a Human Resources consultancy, at Melt Group we give you the keys on how to make a company organization chart.
Within our Strategic Consulting services is the Job Description. This allows us to elaborate a clear and thoughtful organization chart for the business.
What we intend is that there is a coherent order, which marks the departmental and labor functions clearly.
Strategic solutions for your company's HR challenges
There are many challenges that we must face if we are in charge of human resources in a company. Overcoming each one of them is essential to achieve business success. From our human resources consulting firm, Melt Group, we are committed to the design of ad hoc strategies for our clients.
It is necessary for the success of these, experience, knowledge of the sector and the technology used.
The business organization chart
Basically, an organization chart is the graphical representation of the company’s structure at the Human Resources level. It allows us to provide a clear visualization of the departments and their managers.
Thanks to the organization chart, the order of professional categories is very clear, which will allow employees to know to whom they are accountable or to give feedback.
What should the organization chart include?
Leaders
Obviously, the organizational chart must clearly show who exercises the leadership of the company. They are the ones who make decisions and must approve proposals from other departments in the business.
To be a good business leader you must know the industry and offer quality solutions, both internally and externally.
Middle management
We would define them as the managers of the organization. They function as a link between the business leaders and the employees themselves.
Middle managers have the task of overseeing the operation of an area of the company.
Operators
These are the workers who carry out the company’s functions and have contact with middle management.
Support
Temporary employees whose mission is to support the basic workers in their functions.
Position descriptions
Having a business organization chart allows us to have a well-organized and orderly staff within the organization. Its usefulness and advantages are multiple:
Types of organization charts in the company
El organigrama de empresa puede variar dependiendo de las necesidades de cada compañía. Lo cierto es que actualmente existen diferentes opciones para jerarquizar los puestos de trabajo de una entidad.
Organizational chart according to the information they provide
- Informative: they show a complete and broad outline of the company, but only indicate important information.
- Analytical: provides detailed data. Therefore, it is more concrete than the previous one. Its function is to improve interdepartmental relations and favor possible internal investigations.
- Formal: its purpose is to provide clear information on the organization of the entity and requires management approval.
- Informal: it does not need to be approved by the company’s management team.
Organizational chart by type of organization
- Hierarchical: it is usually the most common in today’s organizations. It is structured in a pyramidal way, in order to optimize resources and business communication.
- Matrix: when the company has more than one director, this is the organization chart that can best represent the structure of the business.
- Flat: this is a somewhat different option, as it does not reflect the middle management. We only have access to management and employees in general.
Organizational chart based on business requirements
- General: posts and positions are perfectly specified.
- Integral: it is more complete and reflects well the different departments.
- Functional: it is the most complex and complete, since it includes each and every one of the positions in the company.
Organization chart according to its design
- Vertical: it is the most common, since it shows the information through a data pyramid.
- Horizontal: the order is established from left to right, with the most important management positions reflected on the left side.
- Circular: in the center of the circle we see the leaders and in the rest of the rings the rest of the departments are shown.
- Mixed: it is a combination of vertical and horizontal organization chart.
