Morphology
standing + in + the + organization
The noun 'standing' already denotes social or professional status and the prepositional phrase 'in the organization' simply specifies the domain, so the overall meaning is a direct, compositional combination of its parts. This is a common, cross-linguistic syntactic pattern (status/standing + in + group) and a B1 learner who knows the constituents should be able to infer the phrase's meaning.
Etymology
The phrase standing in the organization comes from the simple image of people at meetings: someone who is standing near leaders or on a higher step is more seen and trusted inside the organization. So, the phrase now means a person's level of 'respect', 'importance', or 'authority' in a group.
