Does anyone know of any diagrams online that show the CURRENT hierarchical structure of the Watchtower compared to the previous hierarchical structures of the past. I know they have complicated it on purpose to try to protect themselves legally from lawsuits. I would like to try to understand their current structure compared with the past. Thanks

There was one here of the interior of a bird cage.

Was this one you were thinking of? :)
thanks wild thing. The keepers of the bird cage of course, the real hierarchy, are not shown.
That picture pretty much sums it up. Accurate.
Thanks Wild- Thing that pic sums it up nicely
It wasn't exactly what I was looking for, but it is pretty accurate. Haha!
If anyone knows of anything a little bit more useful, please send it my way. Every once in a while, there is something like this topic that I get interested in researching. The ever-changing structure of the Watchtower Society since its inception is a topic of interest to me lately.
Remember the famous WT visual showing the level of comfy chair depending on position in the organisation? On the cedars page (you may need to paste it in):

Thank you for the link slimboyfat. That is very useful. And that pic you described is hilarious!
I would like to know more about their structure(s) that they have set up legally. I would like to read more about how they have set up separate legal entities to protect themselves from lawsuits.
Wikipedia is a good place to find some information.
