“If an employee is asked to explain who is in charge of the different divisions, most of the times a short explanation is given, sometimes clarified by means of an organization chart. This explanation is the formal one. But it doesn’t necessarily mean that the person in charge, who is mentioned in the explanation, is the right one to go to if you want to get things done as quickly as possible. … So the real influence that a person has within an organization cannot be read from his position on the organization chart, but depends from the degree to which he is within the social network. The Networktracker is a tool to chart social networks.”
