Free org chart template (CSV download)
Download a free org chart template for Excel or Google Sheets. Fill in names and managers, then import to build your company org chart online.
An org chart template saves time when you already have names in a spreadsheet. Simple Org Chart includes a CSV template with the right columns — download it from the editor and open it in Excel, Google Sheets, or Numbers.
What columns you need
At minimum, include a Name column. For richer company org charts, add:
- Job title
- Department
- Reports to — the manager’s name (must match exactly one person)
Import into the editor
Open Simple Org Chart, click Import CSV, and choose your filled-in file. Preview rows before importing — fix any mismatched manager names first. The whole chart loads in one undoable step.
When a template beats drawing boxes
Templates work well for HR handoffs, reorgs, and finance or health org chart updates where the data already lives in Excel. You get proper org chart design from the layout engine without rebuilding in PowerPoint or Visio.
