Chris Helland wrote asking how to map organizational links.
You can do this easily with social network analysis software -- such as
UCINet, NetDraw and Pajek. All low cost and easily searched for on the
web. Avoid non-analytic allegedly social network stuff such as Friendster.
To know more about the methods and concepts, read Stanley Wasserman &
Katherine Faust, _Social Network Analysis_.
