What is an organizational chart?

The organizational chart (also referred to as organization chart, org chart, organigram or organogram) is a very straightforward and intelligible plan that shows the whole structure of organizations and the relationships between their hierarchical levels.

In other words, it allows you to visualize formal relations of subordination within your company or department, like who are the managers and their teams, or from whom the chief executive shall expect reports.

You can also use this diagram to map different kinds of hierarchical structures, e.g., family trees, language groups, and fields of knowledge.

Best uses for the organizational chart
  • Historical, ancestral and family trees
  • Business organization
  • Transparency within your company
  • Quick-reference for clients and investors to know which person to ask for a particular topic
  • Etymology and language development
  • Scientific, technological, or evolutionary developments

  • Consider the size of your organisation, as well as the medium you will present this chart on, before you begin–a large organisation may need to be split over several organizational charts to read well on a slide presentation
  • Switch your chart to a “Horizontal chart” layout on the “APPEARANCE” tab to maximize the use of space for several branches
