I'm with William on this one. I'd have just one table of people and use another table to track their roles. Susan H. ...as usual, I do it a bit differently ...master table for "entity" with an ID, and type ...one to one child tables for orgs and persons using the entity ID ...then build a many to one role table as child to the master in which the entity can show in several different roles without denormalizing the relationships or data ...then you can show the person's role in both internal and external orgs ...hope that makes sense.
