What is an org chart?
An org chart shows who reports to whom. This template has three levels — one lead, three department heads and two teams under each — joined by elbow connectors so the hierarchy stays tidy as you add people. Use it for a company, a club, a volunteer group or a school project.
When to use it
- Onboarding new people so they know who does what.
- Planning a reorganisation or new hires.
- Documenting roles in a club, society or volunteer group.
How to make an org chart in SketchFlow
- Step 1: Open the org chart template in SketchFlow.
- Step 2: Double-click each box and type a name and role on two lines.
- Step 3: Add a person by duplicating a box (Ctrl/Cmd+D) and drawing an elbow arrow from their manager.
- Step 4: Use auto layout from the command palette (Ctrl/Cmd+/) to tidy a chart that has grown messy.
- Step 5: Export as PNG or SVG for your handbook or slides.
Tips for a better result
- Put the role first if people change more often than positions.
- Use one colour per department.
- For big organisations, make one chart per department and link them.
