Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

With regards,

FUNC. SPECS FOR ORG. CHARTS BY PRODUCTS

When we have created a “structured” database of, say, 5 lakh job-adverts, we will be in a position to offer the following features to our subscribers:

Job-Description Manual

In this case, let us say that a given subscriber has (i.e. already created), an Organisation-chart of his Company, such as:

                  M.D

                   │

 ┌───────────────────────┐

 CFO    President        CEO

 │         │               │

VP (Mfg) VP (R&D)      VP (Mktg)

 │          │

GM (M/c   GM (Assy

 Shop)     Shop)

We allow the subscriber to “upload” this chart in a particular tool/module.

Then, when he clicks on a particular position (hierarchy-block), immediately a draft/tentative job-description pops up next to that block.

This job-description is pulled from our “Job-Advert Database”, using same “priority” as described in my today’s note on JOB ADVT. DATABASE.

Subscriber can now “edit” this job-description by adding/deleting/modifying it.

When he is satisfied, he clicks “SAVE”. Of course, there should be a provision whereby he can edit at any time.

Organisation-Chart Construction

In this case, we presume that the subscriber does NOT have an existing ready-made chart of his Company. He wants to construct one from scratch.

In this case, the Software Module

As soon as he enters “actual Designation” in any block on the template, two adjacent blocks pop up, as shown, viz: 

“Occupant Data Block”

Here the recruiter would need to enter all pertinent values for the “current-occupant”.

Every time the occupant resigns/retires/dies recruiter can comeback, edit & fill-in values pertaining to the new occupant.

“Job Description Block”

This block gets filled up automatically from the job-advt. database. Subscriber can edit & save it. By & large, this block i.e. job-description, will not require changes, unless one person leaves & another moves into this slot.

Starting Block will always be just one block in each template. However, subscriber can collapse any no. of additional blank blocks in “linking level” of the charting level, by horizontal scroll-bars for each level.

Overall Linking Template/Matrix/GRID:

Horizon/Breadth -> Span (ALT #)

Depth/Level

 (Table diagram with columns A–M and levels 1–10, showing linked template numbers like 4P, 6F, 2S, PK etc.)

Clicking on each will expose/reveal the details of each Sectional/Divisional/Departmental org.chart. What I have described is a crude concept.

The best way to develop a realistic/universally applicable concept would be to attach (Inder can help), REAL TRUE LIFE organisation-charts of large companies & then see if my concept works or not & what modifications are required.

Once again, we are leveraging the job-advt. database to help us offer this feature to HR managers.
