Organizational chart (org chart)

A diagram of departments and reporting lines.

An organizational chart shows how a company is structured: departments, job positions and who reports to whom. It helps new joiners find the right person and helps managers see their teams.

In practice

In an HR system the chart is drawn from each employee's manager and department, so it stays up to date when people move.

See how these work together in one system.
