How to add/edit department heads?

In organizations, multiple departments exist, each requiring designated employees to manage deliverables and oversee inter-departmental coordination. These employees, known as department heads, are responsible for the efficient functioning of their respective departments. However, there may be instances where the admin needs to modify the department head, such as due to a promotion or an employee's departure. Keka provides admins with the flexibility to add or edit department heads at any time, facilitating seamless management of departments and ensuring smooth transitions when changes occur.

Let us take a look at the steps of how to add/edit department heads on the Keka portal - 

Go to the Org (1) section, click on Org Structure (2), and then go to the Department (3) tab.

Here, click on any Department (1) where department heads need to be added or changed. Then under Summary, click on the option of Department Head (2) and type the name of the employee who you want to assign as the department head.

Once added, if you want to edit by removing any employee from the Department Head position, then click on the Remove icon for that particular employee.
