Crowdsourcing Your Organizational Chart

The Why & How of Collaborating in HR Docs

Why do we care?

Org Charts help you identify opportunities for growth, build company unity, as well as understand relationships.

Org charts are only as good as the information in them, if yours isn’t very good, it can’t be well-utilized.

Company structure changes happen constantly, these things need to be updated often, especially in a fast-moving company.

You don’t HAVE to go at it alone!

Share your Org Chart with the whole company using an app! *You only need to send it to appropriate people in each department.

When you collaborate it’s easier to spot mistakes. Someone in the accounting department probably knows more about the employees in accounting than someone in sales.

Make sure the information is accurate, so higher ups know exactly who is above whom.

Things to observe

Now that your org chart I updated, take a look at the colleague structure – how are colleagues getting along with their supervisors? If things aren’t flowing, maybe a change in the structure would be a good thing.

Identify responsibilities of employees so they can be acknowledged for the work that is done and/or not done.

Using Crowdsourcing Tools

A web-based solution eliminates things like versioning and compatibility issues.

Make sure you pick a secure tool.

Always have hard copies as well as online copies

Voilà!

Now just work on keeping that updated, as it will be a valuable asset to your company!
