TABLE OF ORGANIZATION The table of organization shows relationships within the organization. A position near the top of the table has more responsibility and power. Positions near the bottom report up the solid lines to the positions above them. Positions equal in rank are usually listed at the same level, although space on a page may influence the ability to draw this out. The critical element is, How many layers are there between the position and the place where important decisions are made? The formal lines of an organization only tell one part of how things work. Personal relationships, connections with people outside the organization and other factors may influence how things really work. Sometimes by ability or charisma or personal connections, people develop more influence than their position would ordinarily allow.
