How to Make an Organizational Chart in Microsoft Word

1. Open a new or existing document in Word 2007. Then select 'Insert' and 'SmartArt' from the Ribbon.
2. Choose 'Hierarchy' for the type. Double-click 'Organization Chart' graphic in the 'Choose a SmartArt Graphic' dialog box to load it on your page.
3. Place your cursor within '[Text]' in the 'Text' pane (the bulleted list beside the organizational chart). Type the superior officer's name and title into the top level.
4. Add other employees in the department or company below. To place an employee on a lower level, press 'Enter' and 'Tab.' To keep employees on the same level, press the 'Enter' key. To type directly on the organization chart, place your cursor in a placeholder for '[Text]' and insert a name and title.
5. Click the 'Design' tab in the Ribbon to customize the organizational chart. Then choose 'Change Colors' and pick the colors you want to apply from the gallery.
