Matrix Structure Organizational Chart

Projects & Company Departments

Slide Content

The slide displays a "Matrix Structure Organizational Chart" which showcases the relationships between different company departments and projects. There are three department blocks each with a unique colored header and an icon, representing finance, general operations, and human resources respectively. Under each department are sub-sections for project descriptions. This layout allows for a visual representation of departmental structures and their associated projects within an organization, facilitating a clear understanding of the cross-functional roles and interactions.

Graphical Look

• The slide has a clean, professional design with a white background.
• A bold title is centered at the top with a subtitle beneath it, providing a clear topic indication.
• There are three main columns, each representing a different department with a distinct color theme and a relevant icon.
• Each department column has a header with the placeholder text "Department Name" set against a colored background.
• Below the department headers are gray placeholders for text, spread vertically, indicating spots for project descriptions.
• Icons representing finance (a dollar sign), operations (a clipboard), and human resources (a person silhouette) are placed above the department name sections.
• The colors for the departments are muted shades of blue, green, and purple.
• Each project within the columns is indicated by a paper-like graphic with a folded corner, giving the effect of layered documents.

The slide is visually balanced with a harmonious color scheme and intuitive icons that quickly convey the departments' functions. The design is grid-based, offering an orderly representation of the matrix structure.
