30 Diagram Examples for Any Type of Project

No matter what kind of project you’re managing, one thing is for sure—you’ll be working with a lot of information and data of all kinds.

Sometimes, this information can be hard to understand or explain to others using just text. That’s where graphs and diagrams come in handy. 

Both are key to the success of any healthy business, but sometimes, coming up with the right diagrams to best convey qualitative information is tough. That’s why you’re going to love this blog.

Consider this article your new go-to guide for the top diagrams you need to know for any type of workflow, including when to use them, diagram examples, real-life testimonials, and must-have tricks for making them fast.

20 Types of Diagrams Examples for Your Team

Before we go any further here, let’s set something straight. What is a diagram?

A diagram, simply put, is a visual way of sharing information. We can use diagrams to explain both quantitative and qualitative data.

Qualitative data is any information that cannot be expressed with a numerical value or counted. This may include steps in a workflow, members of an organization, images, concepts, timelines, and much more. Diagrams like Mind Maps or Gantt Charts can explain this well.

Numerical information or quantitative data is represented by things like columns, line graphs, bar charts, or—my personal favorite—pie charts.

It’s vital to determine your information’s purpose before committing to a specific diagram type. This’ll make a lot more sense when you see examples IRL—which we have for you! 

So without further ado, here are our favorite diagrams with examples.

P.S. Super helpful templates lie ahead.

1. Mind map diagram

If you’ve ever used a free project management software like ClickUp, you’ve probably heard of this popular workflow diagram example. Mind maps are an excellent tool for diagramming, planning workflows, data visualization, brainstorming new processes—and feeling creative while doing it! 

These diagrams typically start with one main idea or with an end goal in mind to branch out, and your diagram naturally takes shape from there. They are highly visual, and the best ones are also flexible, customizable, and collaborative. 

Like a web or even a stream of consciousness, mind maps connect ideas (nodes) together to visually convey how one project phase leads to the next. 

Create a workflow to present a bird’s-eye view of the technical documentation process with ClickUp Mind Maps 

And that’s not even the best part! Mind maps can be as structured or free-form as you please. With resources like digital whiteboards, you can build your Mind map like you would any daytime doodle—adding shapes, connectors, media, and even bringing the entire team into the mix. 

When to use a mind map diagram?

While this is a popular diagram for planning new business functions, processes, or projects, mind maps are also used for things like network maps describing different roles in a company, brainstorming possible answers to a central question, or exploring subtopics of a larger theme.

Don’t feel too bogged down by the rules here; Mind maps are meant to be customized. Plus, with the help of one of the many free Mind Map templates and resources available to you, you’ll never feel alone in the process of creating your very first one. 

Use mind maps to flesh out plans or strategies for tasks in your personal and professional lives, including:

  • Business growth
  • OKRs
  • Brainstorming
  • Infographic presentations
  • Onboarding
  • Roadmaps
  • Time Management

And more!

2. Hierarchy diagram

If you listen closely, you can almost hear the unanimous “Ahhhhh” and agreeable nod from every ClickUp user around the world. We love hierarchy diagrams—it’s the foundation of our platform! 

Like a Russian nesting doll, hierarchy diagrams start with one all-encompassing topic (like your entire organization or a large department) and categorize everything under that umbrella by breaking them down into similar, more manageable chunks. 

ClickUp Hierarchy
ClickUp’s unique Hierarchy gives you the flexibility to organize teams of any size

We could talk about our Hierarchy system for days! Read more about how ClickUp’s unique Hierarchy can help you create the perfect infrastructure to scale your business. 

When to use a hierarchy diagram?

Hierarchy diagrams are a highly visual way of organizing everything—from organizations to departments, complex projects, and daily tasks. 

While organizational charts show the relationships between the people in each role, hierarchy diagrams show how each daily task or project fits into the big picture. 

3. Matrix diagram

You’ve definitely seen this type of diagram example before—maybe even used one to make sense of a complicated situation or a big decision! 

Ideal for categorizing multiple items, matrix diagrams are composed of four quadrants across two axes. Each quadrant represents a different category while both axes sometimes represent two opposing constant themes—AKA, how well or poorly something is performing, how much or how little something occurs, etc. Still, the axes don’t necessarily have to represent anything. In some cases, the axes simply serve as boundaries to visually divide data into four areas. 

Like mind maps, matrix templates are customizable. Information can be divided into quadrants in a list form or plotted at specific points relative to what the axes represent. 

When to use a matrix diagram?

Matrix diagrams can be used for things in both personal and professional realms. Project managers may use this type of diagram to: 

  • Determine the potential success of a new project
  • Identify areas of need in their business strategy
  • Prioritize new ideas
  • Compare their projects‘ own competitiveness against similar existing projects

Use ClickUp’s Traceability Matrix Template to track all of the technical details of your business.

ClickUp’s Traceability Matrix Template provides an easy way to map out these relationships in an organized and comprehensive manner.

And did we mention that matrix diagram examples are found across industries? 

One of the primary diagrams that I always utilize and advocate for is the Responsibility Assignment Matrix, otherwise known as the RACI (meaning Responsible, Accountable, Consulted, and Informed).

The RACI matrix is part of the larger domain of stakeholder management and engagement that allows the team and project manager to stay organized. The purpose of the RACI matrix is to assess stakeholders and document each person’s role and responsibility in a specific project.

RACI matrixes need to be simple and digestible; any team member should be able to view and understand the matrix without difficulty. The main contributor to a RACI matrix is the project manager and project team, as the best use of this diagram is for each member to hold each other accountable for their work while acting as a reference for project managers to delegate work to the correct individual.

4. Circle diagram

Almost like the qualitative counterpart to your classic pie chart, circle diagrams show how different elements come together to create one whole product or idea. But here’s the kicker—instead of conveying how much of the circle (or pie) each component represents, the sections of a circle diagram are all divided equally.

Circle diagrams can be created using one circle divided by a certain number of categories or as a number of circles arranged in a circle. 🤯

You can customize your circle diagram examples with colors or images that relate to each component. You can also rank each piece of the circle diagram using concentric circles to convey the hierarchy or importance of each layer. 

Add shapes, text, notes, and even convert items on your circle diagram into tasks with ClickUp Whiteboards

When to use a circle diagram? 

This type of diagram is extremely versatile. Whether you’re showing the different cities that make up a state or the phases necessary to complete a single project, circle diagrams are excellent visual aids to have handy for meetings with project stakeholders, while pitching new ideas, or breaking down a multi-step process. 

Bonus: Stakeholder Management Software!

5. SWOT analysis diagram

SWOT analysis diagrams look very similar to matrix diagrams, and some teams may even use them interchangeably. Still, SWOT analysis diagrams have a narrowly defined objective. 

Many diagram examples on this list have wonderfully blurry boundaries that you can bend and customize to your needs, but SWOT diagrams are not necessarily the same way. For example, you can tweak your matrix diagram into becoming a SWOT diagram, but not the other way around. And that’s because the boundaries of this diagram are spelled out in its name!

S: Strengths
W: Weaknesses
O: Opportunities
T: Threats

Like a matrix diagram, you’ll use two axes to create four quadrants, then label each quadrant to represent the four areas of SWOT. 

SWOT analysis diagrams are used to determine how your business or product stacks up against internal and external factors. 

  • What are the strengths of your product?
  • Are there any internal areas of weakness or reasons that may deter a customer from choosing your product?
  • How can you use external opportunities to grow? Are there clear areas in your control that you can leverage like training, people, or resources that can help you improve?
  • What external factors are threatening your product’s performance? AKA, cheaper alternatives, obstacles, similar competitors, etc.

The creativity in your SWOT diagram examples comes from how you create your four quadrants, the colors, media, images, and the details you add to your resource. That’s the beauty of this diagram!

They are easy to set up on paper or on a digital whiteboard, leaving you ample time to fill in your diagram as you please. 🎨

When to use a SWOT diagram?

No matter your business or product, SWOT analysis diagrams are key for determining things like your product market fit or proving your future success. 

A SWOT analysis chart can be used to identify and assess the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats of a business.

A SWOT analysis is not a static exercise—it should be conducted on a regular basis to ensure that the information is accurate and up-to-date.

In our case, this exercise is extremely beneficial. It helped us focus our efforts on areas that are most likely to lead to success and to develop strategies for dealing with potential problems. For example, we have greatly improved our new member onboarding process, resulting in a much faster integration within the team.

You don’t have to your own business to benefit from SWOT analyses, you can also use them to determine your own areas of strength and improvement as a leader, freelancer, or entrepreneur. 

6. Org chart diagram

Similar to a hierarchy diagram, an organizational chart breaks down the roles and relationships between every position in an organization. Org charts can be represented top to bottom, horizontally, as an organizational matrix, or TBH, any other way that makes sense to you.

Think of your org chart as the family tree of your company—expressing how the chain of command flows through the entire organization and who directly reports to whom. 

Learn how to make an org chart in Google Sheets!

When to use an org chart diagram? 

You may feel like you have a pretty solid grasp on your organizational structure already, but it’s always a good idea to have an org chart on hand as a resource to fellow team members, new employees, potential investors, and stakeholders. 

Plus, the only constant thing in life is change. Having an org chart on hand is often the most effective way to convey updates to the chain of command, how decisions affect the entire group, and internal moves. 

What’s more, an updated and easily accessible org chart is a great way to encourage internal networking.

Empower your employees to collaborate across departments or reach out to potential mentors who they otherwise may have never met!

As a startup, it’s important to align everyone in the organization and have clear roles of responsibility. We have a dynamic org chart to show clear reporting structures for all the employees in the company. With everyone understanding their roles, responsibilities, and reporting structures, we work together more efficiently, understand each other’s expectations, and achieve common goals while communicating honestly and openly.

7. Gantt chart diagram 

Another ClickUp favorite. 💖

A Gantt chart diagram represents the timeline of a project, organized horizontally on a bar chart. 

Like the matrix diagram, Gantt charts lie on two axes. The X-axis relates directly to the timeline—the days, weeks, or months needed to cover the entirety of your project. The Y-axis houses each task needed to complete the project, each task is represented as a bar on your timeline. 

By stretching each bar (task) across the days or weeks needed to complete them, your Gantt chart takes form. The beginning of each bar represents the start date of each task and the end of the bar represents its deadline. 

Group, filter, or hide tasks in ClickUp 3.0 Gantt charts to track and connect workflows across all your work

Part of the beauty behind Gantt charts is how much information you can convey on one screen. Depending on the project management software you’re using or the template you’ve chosen, Gantt charts can visually communicate: 

  • Task relationships and dependencies
  • Task Milestones
  • Multiple projects at a time
  • Planned vs actual due dates
  • And so much more 🤯

Sounds pretty cool, huh? Gantt charts are every project manager’s dream, and we’ve got the ultimate Gantt chart guide for you to learn exactly why you need them in your life. 

When to use a Gantt chart diagram?

Gantt charts are easy to read and simple to set up, making them ideal for virtually any use case, including construction projects, marketing campaigns, education, daily tasks, event planning, and more. 

And with the help of a flexible template, it’s never been easier to start a Gantt chart of your own! This simple Gantt chart template by ClickUp is the perfect starting point for anyone wishing to dip their toes in the fountain of Gantt charts.

8. Workflow diagram 

The beauty of qualitative data is that it can be expressed in so many different ways! You may already notice some crossover in similarities between different diagram examples on this list, or see how you could use two types of diagrams to represent the same set of information. 

Several of these diagram examples are useful for planning out workflows to an extent, but workflow diagrams have a more specific end goal and require some non-negotiable information.

Workflow diagrams help you manage the time and tasks involved in reaching a goal by breaking things down into: 

  • What needs to be done
  • What’s in progress
  • What’s already finished 

These kinds of diagrams can take many shapes and forms depending on the complexity of your existing processes, but all will follow a logical, start-to-finish flow of tasks set against a timeline to ensure that you’re staying on track. 

Some common traits of workflow diagrams include swimlanes to define who is responsible for which tasks and arrows or connectors to show task relationships.

Bonus: RACI Chart Examples & RACI Chart Templates!

When to use a workflow diagram? 

Workflow diagrams are popular in project management but can also speak to virtually any personal process like your workday, quarterly goals, educational planning, or even training your new dog.

By clearly mapping out each phase in a project or goal, you can help prevent bottlenecks before they happen, improve communication among your team, increase efficiency, and take more ownership over the things you accomplish. We love that.

Bonus: Affinity diagram templates & affinity diagram tools!

When managing a group coaching program or cohort, it can feel like all the pieces of your administration, curriculum development, delivery, and student support are disorganized. As a consultant to founders of online educational and certification programs, I find that creating cohesive program management is essential to efficiency in managing online education.

Within ClickUp, I’ve created a primary space under the ‘Group Coaching’ workflow with several folders organized based on this specific topic. By using the calendar view for the entire space and organizing the lists and folders by color within ClickUp, I can identify what upcoming live sessions are being held, which emails are in what status, and what posts are being scheduled or written for the community group. This workflow makes the most sense for virtual learning experiences, but can also be modified to accommodate in-person educational training.

9. Flowchart diagram 

Similar to a workflow diagram, flowcharts visualize the path you’ll take in a specific process. 

First, define a clear start and ending point to your diagram, then use shapes to represent each step in your process. Connect these shapes with lines and arrows to express the order of operations. 

Flowchart in ClickUp Whiteboards
ClickUp Whiteboards offer all the creative and collaboration features you need to construct the flowcharts of your dreams

When to use a flowchart diagram? 

While flowcharts are commonly used to map out a series of events from the beginning through the end, you can also add yes or no options to your shapes to add additional processes to your diagram in case something changes. 

In healthcare positions where you are patient-facing, in customer support, or solving a problem, this can be very helpful! 

For project managers, flowcharts are an excellent starting point to gauge the time, resources, and steps involved in completing new ventures. 

10. PERT chart diagram

PERT chart diagrams are like mind maps that primarily focus on the project milestones that make up your critical path

Like flowcharts, PERT charts connect shapes (tasks) with arrows to convey the flow of events in a project—but are more so used for defining task relationships than providing updates on a project’s process. 

But with the right project management software, you can take these diagram examples very far! Short for Program Evaluation Review Technique, PERT charts can help you visualize multiple paths to completion and prioritize your most important tasks. 

One drawback to PERT charts is that they can be a bit time-consuming to set up, edit, and update. Luckily, an intuitive and dynamic template like this PERT chart template by ClickUp was designed to tackle this exact challenge.

The PERT Chart Template from ClickUp helps you create a detailed visual timeline for your project, so you can stay on track and make sure no detail is overlooked.

When to use a PERT chart diagram? 

PERT charts are a more high-level glimpse of a project. These are helpful diagrams to turn to when planning your project’s key milestones or laying down your critical path. Plus, PERT charts can give you an idea of how long each task might take, especially if you’re not heading into your project with a clear time estimate already in mind. 

Bonus: Draw.io alternatives

We used a PERT chart when building out our web application for our business. I’m not an engineer, but my co-founder is, so it was vital for him to build a chart that shows the flow of our systems and how they are dependent/independent of one another.

This allows me to visualize the flow of data, application rendering, and the timeline for the data to flow throughout our different systems. Using this chart, my co-founder can easily articulate where problems are currently arising with our application and share these with other individuals and me across our team.

It helps clarify the flow of inputs and outputs and who is involved at each step.

When to use a SIPOC diagram?

  • When starting a process improvement project
  • To provide a clear overview of a process for team alignment
  • When identifying areas where improvements are needed

18. Swimlane diagram

A swimlane diagram is a flowchart that organizes steps into “lanes” based on who or what is responsible for each step. Each lane represents a person, team, or department.

It’s perfect for showing workflows, responsibilities, and how tasks move across teams.

10 Other Examples of Project Diagrams for Specific Functions

In addition to the different types of diagram examples we’ve covered above, there are specific kinds of diagrams that are used very frequently for specific functions like product or business management. Here are some examples of such diagrams.

Product diagram examples

User flow diagram example from an ecommerce website
An example of a user flow diagram
  • Product structure diagrams: These diagrams illustrate the hierarchy and arrangement of a product’s components. For example, in a car, the diagram would show the car as the main component, with sub-components like the engine and wheels detailed beneath it. This helps teams understand how different parts interact 
  • User flow diagrams: User flow diagrams map out the user journey within a product, detailing interactions and decision points. They serve as navigational aids for product managers to optimize user experience by visualizing how users will navigate through the product
  • Site maps: Site maps provide a visual representation of a website’s structure, showing how different pages are interconnected. This is particularly useful in digital product management to ensure logical navigation paths for users
  • Product development process flowcharts: These flowcharts illustrate the entire product development lifecycle, from ideation to launch. They help teams visualize each phase of development and ensure all steps are accounted for

Business management diagram examples

Decision Tree Diagram examples
Break down problems and visualize the best course of action with decision trees
  • Audit diagrams: Audit diagrams are used to represent the steps involved in an auditing process. They help in planning, executing, and documenting audits by visually mapping out the workflow. Using audit diagrams enhances communication among auditors and stakeholders by providing a clear visual representation of the process. They also help identify potential issues or inefficiencies within the workflow, allowing for timely adjustments
  • Decision trees: A decision tree is a graphical representation of possible solutions to a decision based on certain conditions. It resembles a tree structure, with branches representing different choices and their possible outcomes. Decision trees enable teams to visualize potential outcomes, assess risks, prioritize features effectively, and align decisions with overall business strategies
  • Fault tree analysis diagrams: FTA diagrams are used to analyze the causes of system failures or undesired events. They provide a top-down approach to identifying potential faults within a system. Fault tree analysis templates help organizations prioritize risks and implement preventive measures effectively

Marketing diagram examples

Empathy map Diagram examples
Empathy mapping helps marketers understand their audience better
  • Empathy maps: Empathy maps are tools designed to help teams understand their customers better by visualizing their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. By using empathy maps, marketing teams can develop more customer-centric strategies, ensuring that campaigns resonate with target audiences
  • Funnel maps: A funnel diagram shows how data or a process narrows down as it progresses. It starts wide at the top, representing a large number, and gradually narrows to the bottom, showing how numbers reduce through stages. It’s common in sales and marketing to show conversion rates
  • Marketing trees: These are hierarchical diagrams that outline the components of a marketing strategy or campaign. Marketing trees help visualize the relationship between different marketing elements. The tree starts with a central idea (e.g., a marketing campaign) and branches out into various components, such as target audiences, channels, tactics, and metrics for success
