French term or phrase: cartographies des réseaux d’influence
This term appears in a presentation about corporate intelligence tools.
I've asked my client, and apparently it's a kind of diagram showing which person should receive which message in terms of communication depending on the situation.
If anyone has an idea of what term is actually used within companies, it would be much appreciated!!

agree  xxxNick Somers: Yes, I like that, maybe chart rather than network

agree  Karen Tucker: I like this best because it's immediately understandable; "chart" is good, too (as in "organizational chart"). Another possibility: "decision-making tree" (from the concept of "phone tree")
