Literal lateral – organisation charts

February 4, 2009

An organisation chart from a potential client this week came with an unusual twist. It reads from left to right – literally lateral thinking. It looks something like the made-up example below. I’m not sure what software they used (I’ve used Excel but have not quite manged to get as good a picture of it as I would like) but it certainly does away with those cumbersome boxes. Any other unusual approaches to report?
