    Definition

    What is Org chart?

    An org chart (organizational chart) is a diagram that shows a company's reporting structure (who reports to whom) laying out roles, teams, and hierarchy visually.

    An org chart maps the shape of an organization. Boxes represent people or roles and lines represent reporting relationships, so anyone can see teams, managers, and levels at a glance.

    Org charts help with onboarding, planning, and understanding decision-making. They also expose structural issues like unclear ownership, overloaded managers, or gaps in a team.

    Atlas can generate an org chart from the same employee records used for payroll and performance, so the chart stays current as people join, move, or leave.
