About this company template

Holding Company Organizational Chart is an illustrative, role-based template for an entire organization. It does not describe a named employer or require one fixed set of roles.

The group owns subsidiaries while operating management sits within each company. Tree lines are a simplified overview: ownership and managerial reporting are different relationships.

Change the example to match your legal entities, operating model, decision rights and real reporting lines before sharing it.

How this holding company organizational chart works

Holding Company is the top node in this example. The first layer contains Group Board, Manufacturing Company, Distribution Company, Services Company.

The group owns subsidiaries while operating management sits within each company. Tree lines are a simplified overview: ownership and managerial reporting are different relationships.

A solid connector in this editable org tree means an example reporting relationship. Ownership, advisory, service, project and partnership relationships may need a separate note or relationship type; do not treat them as another manager.

The dotted company connectors represent ownership or governance, while solid lines inside an operating company can represent management. A subsidiary's staff do not automatically report to Group Finance, Legal or Strategy. Document board control, ownership stakes and service agreements separately.
