As executive coach <a href=\"https:\/\/hbr.org\/2011\/02\/the-importance-of-organization\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Gill C<\/span><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">orkindale notes<\/span><\/a>, \u201c&#8230;structure dictates the relationship of roles in an organisation, and therefore, how people function. An outdated structure can result in unnecessary ambiguity and confusion and often a lack of accountability. \u201d So whether organisational change is mandated\u2014like with a merger or an imposed reduction in force\u2014or whether management simply wants to reexamine the company structure, there are several ways an org chart can help.<\/p>\n<h3><a id=\"_hyig5zkkp9pt\"><\/a>Getting Pay Right<\/h3>\n<p>In the current economic climate employees expectations have been raised in terms of how they are compensated. Good workers are a flight risk if they are not being compensated appropriately. Org charts assist in the examination of both individual and group metrics related to salary and allow management to make plans accordingly. Questions such as \u201cAre we paying a certain group of employees in Location A more than we are paying employees with a similar skill set in Location B?\u201d can be answered. The salary of groups with similar skills sets can also be averaged and compared with industry standards in those professions. Planning and setting fair standards for salary distribution can help increase job satisfaction across the organisation.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.orgchartpro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/image1-17.png\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><a id=\"_s68ly14qafhd\"><\/a>Ready to Move<\/h3>\n<p>Many organisations see value in giving employees varied exposure within the organisation to build bench strength and work experience. Companies will move employees into different job functions to increase the quality of their background and depth of experience.

Succession planning can help identify organisational groups that could use support by providing skills training and management opportunities to potential successors.<\/p>\n<p>Analyzing skill and performance metrics visually in an org chart can help find employees who may eventually be called upon to replace critical members, or identify groups where management potential needs reinforcing.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.orgchartpro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/image4-14.png\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Office Work Software develops the leading org chart software, OrgChart Now.
