short for
organizing board, a
board which displays the functions, duties, sequences of
action and authorities of an
organization. The
org board is the
actual diagrammatic pattern of the
organization, showing the divisions, departments, their
personnel, functions and
lines of
communication. In this lecture
LRH is referring to a six
division, sixteen
department org board which he had just written up in
HCO Policy Letter 3 April 1965. He went on to evolve this into a seven
division arrangement shortly thereafter, and later expanded it to the nine
division org board which is used in most
Scientology organizations today.
See HCO PL 3 April 1965 for further information on the six division org board. For copies of the seven and nine division org boards, see the appendix of Organization Executive Course Volume 0. —Org Board and Livingness Approved 25.2.91
