There are two types of organizational structures. In a centralized structure, the top layer of management has most of the decision making power and has tight control over departments and divisions. In a decentralized structure, the decision making power is distributed and the departments and divisions may have different degrees of independence.

What are organizational levels in organizations?

An organization level is a way of summarizing each level on an organization chart. If you look at a conventional organization chart, you will see it starts at the top with the most senior people and gradually works down the lines of responsibility to the most junior workers. This may mean you can describe the CEO or Chairman as being on the "top organizational level" and the cleaners on the "bottom organization level." You can also use this to assess seniority across roles. For example, a Human Resources Manager would probably have a very different job and reporting structure to an Operations Manager; however, if they are on the same horizontal level on the organization chart, you can say they are at the same organization level and have equal standing and seniority within the company.
