About this company template

Parent Subsidiary 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.

This template shows a parent, operating entities and shared corporate functions without asserting ownership percentages. Replace every entity and annotate legal interests separately.

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

This template shows a parent, operating entities and shared corporate functions without asserting ownership percentages. Replace every entity and annotate legal interests separately.

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.

Add an ownership percentage only when it is known from your own records or a source for a named company. The generic chart leaves percentages blank. A parent's equity interest, board powers and operational management lines are separate facts.
