Purpose of an Organigraph

Intricate Knowledge of Organizations

An Evaluative Tool

We learned that forward thinking marketers clearly understand that to achieve marketing success, they must possess an intricate knowledge of their organization, the products offered, the markets sought, and associated environmental relationships. With such knowledge, marketers are able to formulate productive strategies that yield positive marketing outcomes.

To gain this extensive insight into inter and intraorgnizational relationships can be formed by assembling and analyzing an Organigraph. An Organigraph is an evaluative tool that depicts the activities and operations of organizations. The Organigraph uses a service of shapes to illustrate the actual relationships that exist inside and outside the organizations. Organigraphs can be quite helpful to marketers seeking an overall view of their entities and associated interrelationships, many of which directly impact marketing.
