Flowchart templates

Working with a team means maintaining transparency among members during decision-making and implementing workflow processes. Since people process information differently, it’s impractical to present complex material to team members through blocks of text.

This is where smart design can help. The use of graphs such as our flowchart templates in presentations makes complicated ideas easier to read and digest. They also facilitate the quicker connection and analysis of various data for your audience.

Plus, visuals just make for a less boring report.

Organize the information you’d like to share by customizing any of Canva’s editable and free flowchart templates. Whether it’s for an explainer on a workplace process such as customer onboarding, customer journey, or a breakdown of your department’s next action plan, you can find a blank flowchart template to use and modify to fit what you need.

Look through our collection of flowchart designs and select one according to the theme, style, and color you want. Once you pick a vertical flow chart template that features the design, background, and graphics you like, get to work customizing the details.

Replace the sample text in the title and the flowchart fields with the correct content. You can keep the template’s design or personalize it further with free design elements from our extensive library. Keep the suggested typography or find a better one by exploring available font styles and colors. Modify the shapes and colors of each field too.

Add more elements to your free flowchart template by choosing from the shapes featured on the left side of the editing deck. Just drag and drop them onto your design. Arrange their placement on the layout and remember to add lines and arrows to clarify how they connect to each other. For a more dynamic flowchart, select a transition style for each field’s appearance onscreen.

Send a link to your layout to your teammates and do a run-through of your report to check for correctness. Once you’re done, save and download your flowchart template for free as a JPG, PNG, or PDF to share online or embed into a slide presentation.
