Including contact information and location in an organizational chart is beneficial for several reasons. Firstly, it provides clarity on who does what and where, which can be particularly useful if someone is looking for help. Secondly, it can help to foster communication and collaboration within the organization, as employees know who to reach out to and where they are located. Lastly, it can also be useful for external stakeholders, such as clients or partners, who may need to contact specific individuals or departments within the organization.

Right size it – ensure that your chart isn't too large and overwhelming. "If you need to create three charts rather than one, do it. This way, your audience can get an overview of the organizational structure, then take a deeper dive into departments or divisions when they're ready," Reddigari recommends. Use shapes and colors consistently – use the same shape for supervisors, another shape for mid-level employees and a different one for junior employees. Also, choose one color for each division in your company and use it consistently. Add pertinent information – add details about your staff, such as contact information, location, clients or specialties so it's clear who does what and where, if someone's looking for help. Show assistants with a sidebar below the manager – Reddigari says this helps denote the assistant role while still clearly showing the manager's direct reports. Pay attention to spacing – make your chart easier on the eyes by keeping boxes equidistant from each other.
