Find your place in the organization

What this achieves

My Organization shows you where you sit in the company: the person you report to, their manager, the colleagues alongside you, and anyone who reports to you. It answers the “who do I ask about this” question without opening up everyone’s records.

Required role: Employee, Instructor, or Manager.

Steps

Go to My Organization.
Read down the column: your skip-level manager at the top, then your manager, then you.
Look for your own card, which is marked (you).
Read the peers section below for the colleagues who share your manager.
Read the direct reports section, if you manage anyone.

Who appears

Option	Description
Skip-level manager	Your manager’s own manager, shown at the top.
Manager	The person you report to.
You	Your own card, highlighted and labelled.
Peers	Other people reporting to the same manager. The heading counts them.
Direct reports	Anyone reporting to you. The heading counts them.

Example: James Whitfield sees Olivia Bennett as his manager, her manager above her, and the other engineers as his peers.

What is shown about each person

Four things, and nothing else: their photo, their full name, their job title, and their department.

There is no salary here, no home address, no date of birth, no contact details, and no identity documents. Those are not hidden on the screen — they are not part of what this view asks for.

Example: James Whitfield can see that Priya Raman is the Payroll Manager in Finance. He cannot see what she earns or where she lives, from this screen or any part of it.

It stops at your neighbourhood

This is your surroundings, not a company directory. You see one level up beyond your manager, the people beside you, and the people below you. You cannot walk further up the chain or step sideways into another department.

Example: James Whitfield cannot reach Finance from here, and he cannot open Daniel Okonkwo’s team.

If you need the full structure — searching, filtering, or exporting the chart — that is the org chart in the organization section, which is an administrative screen.

If something looks wrong

This view is drawn from employee records. Somebody in the wrong place here means their record names the wrong manager.

Example: if Tom Hargreaves has moved teams but his record still names his old manager, he keeps seeing the team he has left.

The screen also tells you when it cannot place you at all, and points you at your HR team. That usually means no manager is recorded against your record.

What happens next

Most people use this to work out who to ask about something, or to confirm who approves their requests — approvals follow the same reporting line. Corrections are made on the employee record, not here.
