Re-parent organizational groups in Lucid

Related products:Lucidchart

Organisational groups change over time within a business whether due to restructuring or mergers and acquisitions etc.  Lucid needs the ability to reparent an organizational group to a new parent and keep existing members rather than having to create a new group and then manually move across all users within that org group

Groups are not necessarily created in the correct order either….e.g a group may be created only to have the broader department it is a part of brought onto lucid later on…..

being able to re-parent would help with this scenario as well.

Groups created for granular teams can easily shift from belonging to one group to another. I’ve frequently seen analytics teams move from being part of Finance to IT, from part of Engineering to Data Science, etc. Org charts are not static. Having static groups is a real problem.
