Is there an easy way for text to rollup-drop down?

I'm trying frantically to create a non-traditional org chart which would have an initial list of several names for superiors. We need to be able to simply click on a superior and expand each to display the employees below them to keep the page clean. I've tried working with drop downs; but, I don't think this is what I need. This seems simple, but I'm at a loss as how to accomplish it.
 
Hi Matt

I'm not sure that you could accomplish what you need using Word's graphics.

You could try something completely different, however, to see if that might
help. Just type out the names of the staff in an ordinary document. Apply
the appropriate built-in heading styles to indicate employees' levels
(Heading 1 for the CEO, Heading 2 for the CEO's direct reports, Heading 3
for the next level, and so on).

Then use the Document Map (View > Document Map). You'll get a clickable,
hierarchical list, which may do the job for you.

Hope this helps.
