outline the jobs that make up core business processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They also show the chain of command that employees follow and the departments and people that managers are

chart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In a hierarchical organization chart layout, employees are ranked one above the other according to their position in the company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Those with the highest position are placed at the top and all the departments and subordinate personnel fall under them one level at a time, forming the shape of a pyramid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As an example, here is an organization chart

company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Instead of focusing on their position, a functional org chart emphasizes an employee\u2019s role.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In a functional organizational chart, each department works independently and does not need to be managed by a higher authority.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This organizational chart template is a great example.
