Important departments in an organization

In my last post, I asked a question regarding the importance of departments in organizations. The most important department in an organization depends on the business of the organization. If an organization is driven by sales, the sales department becomes the most important. If the business of an organization is highly regulated, the compliance department becomes the most important department. On the other hand, a data-driven organization depends on the information technology capability. Therefore, the Information Technology Department is the most important department in this case. 
     Therefore, the most important department in an organization depends on the core business of the organization.
