In this episode of the Lead Culture podcast, Jenni Catron dives into a critical yet often overlooked leadership tool: the organizational chart. Great leadership demands more than vision — it requires building a structure that fosters clarity, alignment, and momentum.

Jenni walks leaders through a practical, step-by-step framework for reevaluating their org charts, helping you steward both your people and your mission more effectively. Whether you're leading a small team or a growing organization, you'll learn how to design an organizational structure that supports team culture, strengthens strategy, and empowers individuals to succeed.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • Why a great org chart reflects the sacred privilege of leadership.
  • How to balance stewardship of individuals with the mission of the organization.
  • Why clarity in roles and responsibilities is essential for team alignment.
  • How to start by defining core functions — before assigning any roles.
  • How to clarify the role of the senior leader and determine their span of care.
  • Why direct reports should be structured around core functions, not just convenience.
  • How to evaluate team members' strengths and weaknesses for better role alignment.
  • Why the reevaluation process should be repeated at every organizational layer.
  • How a well-structured org chart creates momentum and drives mission fulfillment.
