About Organization Chart

An organization chart visually displays the hierarchical structure and departmental relationships within an organization. It uses nodes and edges to represent different positions, departments, and their reporting relationships. Each node represents a position or department, while edges represent reporting or peer relationships. Presented in a tree structure, the top level is the highest management, expanding downward level by level to individual departments and positions.
