Abstract: A social network system with an organizational hierarchy established to include a main group with at least one subgroup reporting to the main group. At least one of the one subgroup has field users reporting to the subgroup. Each subgroup has multiple subgroup users while the main group at the apex of the hierarchy has at least one main group user. A server is provided that receives messages from the field users and subgroup users. The field user- and subgroup-messages are communicated to a wireless device associated with the main group user while a first subgroup user receives on a wireless device messages from first subgroup field users on a wireless device. The server employs communication permissions for the organization hierarchy that limit the information to which a member of the organization hierarchy is able to receive based on the role filled by an organization hierarchy member.
