How Does Sainsburys Organisational Chart Looks Like?

Unfortunately, most companies do not release copies or images of their organizational charts to be viewed by the general public. This means that a description of its aesthetic cannot be given.

An organizational chart is in its most basic explanation, a diagram that depicts the structure of an organization or business as well as the relationships and ranks (such as ranks within a hierarchy) of its different divisions, parts and employees. They usually include information on different ranks of staff and their position within the company, for example managers, sales assistants, general managers, etc. They also depict the relationships between the classifications of worker and different organization departments, etc.

In many companies, organization charts tend to be broken into multiple parts, depending upon the size and complexity of the chart itself. This is usually dependant upon the size of the business/organization.

The term organizational chart can sometimes be applied to other, similar diagrams. For example, diagrams and charts that depict different elements or parts with a knowledge base/field.

There are three types of different organization chart that tend to be used.

• Hierarchical

Where the chart depicts different levels of authority and/or power depending upon their position on the chart. For example, a manager would have many workers below them on the organizational chart, which means that the manager has control and authority over those workers, but not on a general manager that may be positioned above them on the hierarchy chart.

• Matrix

Matrix organizations tend to use multiple managers for one team of people in order to get tasks done. For example, a group of studio technicians would all report to one manager in one department of a studio, however they would all be working on different tasks and report also to different producers within the department.

• Flat (horizontal)

These forms of organization work under the theory that workers would perform better without managerial practices and have a stronger influence on the decision making within the business, as well as the completed work itself.
