Frequently asked questions
What is a media organogram?
A media organogram is an organization chart that shows the leadership, departments and sub-departments of a newspaper, online news portal, TV channel or radio station, along with how many people work in each team.
Is this organogram builder free?
Yes. The tool is completely free and needs no login or sign-up. Your data is saved only in your own browser.
How is the department salary calculated?
If a department has a head, the monthly cost is the head salary plus the member salary multiplied by the remaining persons. Without a head, it is the number of persons multiplied by the per-person salary.
Can I add sub-departments?
Yes. Choose any existing department as the parent and the new team is added as its sub-department. A parent can have many sub-departments, and sub-departments can be nested further.
What is included in the first-year budget?
The first-year budget adds the annual salary budget, twelve months of operating costs such as rent and utilities, and all one-time setup costs such as computers, furniture and vehicles.
Can I export the organogram as PDF or Excel?
Yes. Use Print / Save PDF to save the organogram and budget as a PDF, or Download CSV to open the full budget in Excel or Google Sheets.
Can I use it for a TV channel or radio station?
