What is a project plan?
A project plan sets out what will be done, by whom, and when. Presented as a timeline it answers the three questions every sponsor asks: what happens next, who owns it, and when do we hit the milestones. Keep it at workstream level, one line per stream, and put the task detail in your tracker instead.

Most free chart tools give you a flat PNG, or lock PowerPoint export behind a paywall. This template exports real, editable PowerPoint shapes and text — so you can drop the chart straight into your deck and restyle it in PowerPoint, Google Slides or Keynote. That is the difference between a picture and a slide.
