About this course

Use your org charts to visually communicate important information to specific audiences. Add details to help a new employee understand company structure, rearrange current structures to imagine future-state possibilities, or build from scratch to see the set up of your own team!  

Throughout this course, you can expect to learn: 

  • How to use colors and lines to visually communicate hierarchy and reporting structures.
  • How to add important employee information to your org chart, including pictures! 
  • How to build your own org chart using the shape library, or by importing employee data from an existing spreadsheet.

With Lucidchart, you can better see where you (and others!) fit in the big picture of your organization.

For a better experience, you'll want to have: 

  • Google Chrome browser.
  • A Lucid account.
  • Headphones or speakers.
