Double 4 Tier Pyramid Hourglass Diagram with 7 Layers

Slide Content

The slide presents a "Double 4 Tier Pyramid Hourglass Diagram with 7 Layers" which visualizes a top-down and bottom-up approach with a funnel bottleneck. The hourglass structure has 7 distinct levels, each marked with a number from 1 to 4 twice, denoting different stages or elements. Text boxes adjacent to each layer provide space for descriptions, allowing a detailed explanation of each tier. This setup could represent hierarchical information, process steps, or organizational levels in a visually appealing way.

Graphical Look

• The slide background is white, providing a clean and neutral canvas for the diagram.
• The hourglass diagram is in the center, composed of stacked trapezoidal shapes forming two pyramids, one inverted, with a connecting diamond shape indicating a funnel.
• The layers are color-coded: the top pyramid layers descend from dark to light blue, and the bottom pyramid layers ascend from dark purple to light green.
• Each layer of the pyramid is accompanied by a corresponding text box to the left, with a matching color stripe.
• White arrows inside the connecting diamond point both up and down, symbolizing the flow through the funnel bottleneck.
• The numbers 1 to 4 label each layer of the pyramids, with "1" at the bottleneck and "4" at the extremities.
• A target icon with an arrow circling it is located at the bottom layer of the top pyramid.

The slide features a balanced and symmetrical design with a professional and modern look. The color-coded layers and directional arrows clearly convey the flow or progression of a concept or process.

Use Cases

• Illustrating multi-stage processes where elements flow from one stage to another, such as in project management or product development.
• Explaining organizational structures, where levels of hierarchy or responsibility are clearly defined.
• Describing funnel analysis in sales and marketing to represent how prospects are narrowed down through various stages until a target is reached.
• Visualizing systems that require a combination of top-down and bottom-up approaches for strategic planning or process improvement.
