Five-Year Plan Timeline Diagram Template for PowerPoint & Google Slides
Description
This timeline slide presents a five-year roadmap laid out horizontally with circular year markers connected by a muted gray baseline. Each year from 2020 to 2024 appears inside a colored ring—red for 2020 (Market Research), green for 2021 (Pilot Launch), teal for 2022 (Scale Production), purple for 2023 (Market Expansion), and blue for 2024 (Profitability). Above each ring, a corresponding icon visually reinforces the phase: a magnifying glass and heartbeat line for research, a rocket for launch, a gear for scale, a money bag for expansion, and a hand with a dollar sign for profitability. Beneath each year, concise text boxes summarize objectives and milestones, using consistent typography and line weights to maintain legibility. The design’s generous white space, minimal drop shadows, and precise alignments create a clean aesthetic that guides viewers through the sequential steps of strategic planning. Built on master slides with editable vector shapes, color themes, and font styles, this template allows instant customization to align with corporate branding or project-specific color palettes. Resize or reposition elements as needed, swap icons for relevant alternatives, or update text placeholders to reflect your project details in seconds. Optimized for both PowerPoint and Google Slides, it preserves formatting and clarity across devices and resolutions, streamlining remote collaboration and version control. This slide is ideal for illustrating product roadmaps, strategic planning sessions, investor presentations, and internal quarterly reviews where a clear, linear progression is required. Use it to communicate strategic goals, allocate resources over time, or compare parallel initiatives. The flexible layout accommodates additional annotations, milestone markers, or progress indicators to suit evolving project requirements.
Who is it for
Project managers, strategy consultants, and executive teams will benefit from this slide when outlining multi-year plans and strategic roadmaps. Product planners, business analysts, and investment committees can leverage its clear progression to secure stakeholder alignment and track milestone achievements.
