Can the chart run horizontally?

Yes, change flowchart TB to flowchart LR and the tree grows from left to right, which suits deep hierarchies with few nodes per level.

How do I show names and titles?

Use inside the label, for example CEO[General manager Jane Doe], with the title on the first line and the name on the second.

Can I export something I can rearrange in PowerPoint?

The PowerPoint export contains a high-resolution image, not movable shapes. Change the code and export again, or export SVG and edit it in a vector tool.

Company Organisation Chart Template

Previewed in the “Indigo” theme; you can switch themes in the editor

When to use it

Company profile slides, business plans, employee handbooks and quality-system documentation. Three levels: general manager, five departments and two teams per department. Reporting lines use plain connectors (---) without arrowheads, the usual convention for org charts.

Making it yours

Rename a box by double-clicking it in the preview, or edit the text inside the square brackets.
Add a department with CEO --- F[New department] and a team with F --- F1[Team name].
To insert a deputy level, point the department connectors at the deputy node instead of CEO.
If the chart gets too wide, change the first line to LR so the tree grows sideways.
