organisation chart
Staff structure visual
An organisation chart is a diagram showing the structure of a company or institution—who reports to whom, how departments relate, and where authority flows.
The boxes-and-lines format maps hierarchy from top executives down through divisions to individual roles.
Also called an org chart.
This is the British spelling; Americans write organization chart.
