Organizational Matrix Chart Outline – Horizontal Projects

Slide Content

The PowerPoint slide presents an organizational matrix chart with a focus on horizontal projects. It outlines how different projects (Project A, B, C, and D) relate to various departments within an organization. Each project, denoted by a distinct color, intersects with multiple departments, allowing viewers to understand which department is involved with which project. "Your text here" placeholders suggest that the slide is customizable for specific organizational details.

Graphical Look

• The slide has a clear and organized layout with crisp lines and contrasting colors.
• The title is placed at the top, centrally aligned for prominence.
• There is a color-coded key to the left with icons representing various projects (A, B, C, D), each accompanied by a distinctive symbol for easy differentiation.
• Rectangles represent different departments, arranged horizontally across the slide with connecting lines to the projects.
• The department name placeholders are positioned above each set of rectangles.
• The project rectangles are linked to the department blocks using straight lines, indicating relationships or reporting structures.
• The use of colors—teal, purple, grey, and orange—adds visual segregation between different elements.

The overall look is professional and structured, suitable for a business or organizational context with a clear emphasis on hierarchy and project management. The design is minimalistic yet effective, providing visual cues for relationships and dependencies.
