The Accountability Chart gives your organization a clear view of who owns each Seat, who reports to whom, and which Roles each person is accountable for. Use this guide to access and customize your Accountability Chart in Strety, add Seats and assignees, create team-specific drafts, and export or print the chart for meetings.
To access your Accountability Chart, click the Company tab from anywhere in Strety.
If you're new to Strety, you'll see a blank Accountability Chart with a handful of Seats already in place as starting points.
Customize the Accountability Chart
All Leadership Team members, Account Owners, and Admins have permission to edit the Accountability Chart. Members outside of the Leadership team do not have edit access.
To edit any Seat, click into it. From there, you can customize Seat names, add Assignees, add Roles, set the Seat Status, and add External Assignees if the Seat is owned by a non-Strety user.
To add additional Seats beneath a parent Seat, click the three-dot menu and select Add Seat Below. You can also use the Move functions to customize the order of your Seats within each level of your organization.
To expand or collapse branches of your Accountability Chart, click the downward arrow beneath the parent Seat.
Add external users
Perhaps not everyone on your Accountability Chart is a Strety member yet. There's still a way for you to enter their name so that it's explicitly clear who owns that Seat and its Roles.
To enter an external or placeholder user, edit the Seat and type the name into the External assignees field.
Once entered, they will appear as avatars with their initials on the Accountability Chart, including the printable PDF.
Search by Seat or person
You can search the Accountability Chart using two criteria:
Seat name
Person
If searching by person, you can use the Sub Seat filter to see all Seats assigned to that person before narrowing your selection.
The video above shows how to search the Accountability Chart by Seat or person.
Add an Owner's Box
Add an Owner's Box to your organization's Accountability Chart by clicking Edit from the three-dot menu to the right of the page and enabling Show Owner's Box.
Once it's added, edit it by clicking into the Owner's Box, assigning users, and adding Roles.
Export the Accountability Chart
Click the three-dot menu to Export to PDF. The Accountability Chart will arrive in your inbox shortly.

Who can edit the Organization-Wide Accountability Chart?
By default, the Organization-Wide Accountability Chart can be edited by:
Account Owners
Admins
Members of the Leadership Team
If the Leadership Team is set as a Secret Space, only members of the Leadership Team can edit the Organization-Wide Accountability Chart.
Note: Admins who are not members of the Leadership Team will not be able to edit the chart while the Leadership Team is a Secret Space.
Create team-specific Accountability Chart drafts or versions
Planning for growth or an organizational restructure? Or maybe you have a team that wants to create its own custom Accountability Chart separate from the organizational chart. Strety allows you to create different drafts of your Accountability Chart to help your team better visualize the future!
To create new versions of your Accountability Chart, first enable the tool from your team's Tools:
Note: While all Teams can enable Accountability Charts, only the Leadership Team can set the organizational default.
Option 1: Create an Accountability Chart from scratch
This option allows you to build a brand new Accountability Chart from a blank slate!
Option 2: Duplicate an existing Accountability Chart
This option allows you to use the existing Organization-Wide Accountability Chart as your starting point to add, remove, or edit as needed.
Once the draft Accountability Chart is ready, use the following steps to make it your new Organization-Wide Accountability Chart:
Make sure the draft Accountability Chart is in your Leadership Team Space.
Once the Accountability Chart is in the Leadership Team Space, click the chart's three-dot menu.
Select Set Organization Wide.
Review the warning pop-up.
Select Confirm.
