Answer to Question 1

An organization chart is a line diagram that depicts the broad outlines of an organization's structure and suggests the reporting relationships among employees. Organization charts give employees information about the major functions of departments, relationships among departments, channels of supervision, lines of authority, and certain position titles within units.
