The organizational chart diagrams all the staff positions within the convention, showing which staff positions report to whom. Each staff member should work with the person they report to for guidance on their staff duties. The organizational chart also indicates the rank of each position with an icon. The rank is a broad classification of the level of responsibilities and amount of work in a staff position, and it indicates relative position in a chain of command. Many staff positions report to another position of the next higher rank. Some staff positions report to a position of the same rank (though never a lower rank), and sometimes, a staff position will report to a position which is more than one level higher. For example, most of the time, a position of "general" rank will report to a position of "coordinator" rank, but occasionally to a position of "manager" or "executive" rank.
