When to use this template

A startup org chart that fits on one page: CEO, two C-levels, three teams. Use it for onboarding docs, investor updates, and reorg planning — and keep it in the repo so it actually stays current.

How to customize

  1. Add a third report to the CEO. Add node cfo "CFO" below-right of ceo and edge ceo -> cfo — siblings stay evenly spread.
  2. Show a team lead layer. Insert between CTO and teams: node em "Eng manager" below cto, then point fe and be edges at em.
  3. Mark contractors. Suffix labels: node qa "QA (contract)" — or add edge style notes in labels.

FAQ

How do I create an org chart in Reladraw?

Every person or team is a node; every reporting line is an edge; place direct reports below their manager. This template shows the standard pattern and re-flows automatically when you add people.

How do I show dual reporting or dotted lines?

Draw the second edge and label it dotted or advisory. Labels are plain text, so any convention your org already uses transfers directly.

Can I show open headcount?

Add a node labeled “Hiring: Staff Eng” under the right manager with a dashed-style label on the edge. Open reqs stay visible in the same picture instead of a side list.
