Org chart template
Who reports to whom, laid out top-down and easy to update when people move.
What it is
An org chart shows how a company or a team is put together: who leads which group and who reports to whom. This one runs from the top down with connectors, so when you move a box the lines move with it.
When to use it
- For onboarding, so new people know who does what
- When you plan a reorganisation or new hires
- To show a client who their contacts are on a project
How to run it
- 01
Start at the top
Put the head of the company or team in the first box, with name and role.
- 02
Add one level at a time
Add the direct reports under each lead and connect them. Finish a level before you start the next.
- 03
Group large teams
For a team with many people, use one box with the team name and its size, like "Engineering (8)".
- 04
Keep it current
Update the board when someone joins or moves, and share the link instead of sending a PDF that goes out of date.
Opens a new board from this prompt:
"Org chart for a 60-person hotel with management, front desk, housekeeping, kitchen and maintenance"
