I couldn't locate the spot for adding a manager in web outlook. I added my own manager and checked again on the web and there is still nothing showing? I do have admin privileges. Any thoughts?

Spent about half a day making a busted-ass looking org chart.... then watched the first 4 minutes of this video and made a new one that looked a thousand times better. Thanks!

[@joachimbarnett]

Thank you Kevin. Great video. I have been doing charts recently in MS Word and struggling with adding shapes etc. Didn’t realise there were so many options and loved the shortcut at the start of the video of simply doing a list of names with indents and then copying into Smart Art. I often look at your videos but don’t comment. Full of respect for you in your decision to focus on your channel and leave your position at Microsoft (and you did a video on why you did this). I hope this gamble is paying off for you and your family. Keep up the good work and for those of you reading this comment, don’t forget to subscribe and give a like to the video!!!!

[@v3getaOFFICIAL]

Kevin, you are exactly what is right with free content on youtube. thanks for always saving me some time

[@papron4348]

Hi Kevin. I liked using Smart Art with Word or Excel the best. No special add ins or privileges needed. Plus I'm already very familiar with those applications.

[@djharker8463]

This just saved my life in the first 5 minutes! Thank you for being so thorough.

[@Ryanmit1]

Thanks Kevin! I have been waiting for Visio desktop app to get loaded, but I didn't realize work accounts have access to the online version until watching your video.

[@justbelit]

Right on time! Assignment due in 12 hours😅😨 Do you know the reason for Ms Excel consistently freezing with windows 11? (Once a cell is clicked to enter a character it keeps looping-non responsive message) and has been like this for over 24 hours....

[@hilaryanonyei1865]

This just made my life/work easier!! Definitely try the typing and then pasting like he did in the video, makes the org chart so neat and simple.

[@berylann1372]

Hi, thanks so much for this "multi app" video. Helped me no end!!!

[@piotrwojtaszek4295]

Those work fine and adjust their sizes in a smart way, are easily editable etc., but after a certain amount of members in a given org chart, they show some of the weaknesses, like how limiting their layouts are and how poor their space usage is in favour of the wow factor. I liked the fast click away when the 2/5 visio rating on the store was visible :D

[@legobatman8353]

Great tip, I've always done these manually but will definitely be trying this out.

[@aofgrant]

Same here, it's also been manual for me. This looks way more efficient!

[@MindfulStir]

Yep. Manual is painful. Thank you!

[@befasb]

Haha you're still the boss. I'm trying to access the templates in Visio on the web but there are none for org charts. When I search for organization it says there are more hits than are being shown to me, and as I click to read more it says I need a Visio subscription 2 to use org charts.

[@larahporter8123]

Great video Kevin, ty! I remember when you were still at MS and you did not have 1M subs yet. I'm happy to see it's going well for you, and us!

[@ricardoalmeida9926]

I watched your tutorial on creating an org chart. The version I liked best was to create in power point and in MicroSoft Office basic. I like to create the style that best fits our department.

[@ganpathji]

Wow, It saves lots our time when boss asks to prepare organization chart. I like the excel add in linking with Manger's ID this is really dynamic. Really a cool feature. Thanks a lot from Chennai Kevin for another awesome video.

Spooky timing as I’ve been doing just this using AD at work, we used power shell to update staff contact details in AD. Haven’t tried linking it with Visio though will definitely give it a go now!

[@SuperTaps1]

Hi Will, i have been trying to connect AD directly to Visio. Do you happen to know if that is possible? Greetings

[@willyoung8257]

@@SuperTaps1 no sorry. We found when updating the AD it led to 365, whether through Teams or Delve being much more useful for showing org structure

Very informative and useful video. Thank you for sharing. Kevin, not related to org chart, but how did you come up with a Yellow circle frame around you for recording? I have gone through the obs videos, but I would like to know how to change the rectangular frame to a circular one while recording using OBS. Looking forward to your help here. Many thanks! :)

Audio in this video of is very good high bass where do edited audio or directly record and upload.....?

[@KevinStratvert]

Thanks! Good audio is the most important for a video. Used a boom mic (Sennheiser MKH-50) positioned close to my mouth just out of frame, have acoustic panels on my walls, and then edit the audio (e.g., compressor, equalizer, de-esser, noise reduction, set levels appropriately).

[@SurendraUK]

@@KevinStratvert thanks for information

[@lakergreat1]

Why is the 365 org chart not more available as a full size view like the visio example? It seems like you need to use 3rd party tools to get a better visualization

[@grahamwhite9692]

Great video and I plan to experiment. One question - I want photos included - the only way I saw was one of the Smart Art templates - can photos be added to the other methods?

[@pbihari0214]

This is great, do you have any videos or best tips for Flow charts, thanks.

[@sargebelen]

👍

[@alexbainov]

Thanks for the video. Is there an option to reverse/flip the chart in Word like there is Visio (to go from bottom to up instead)?

[@Marion-zr3sh]

Good video, thank you. How do you re-create the sub-level seen on 2:33 (second bullet point is not quite a level, so for example this person would not be a line manager, but is still under the one above)? Thanks.

[@emmanuelowusuoppong]

NIce video.. Please, what do you use to record your screen? Can OBS zoom on on sections of the video at a time?

Hi Kevin! First of all, thanks for updating these useful videos. May you teach us how to solve the blue screen death, I did all of solutions from Google and KZbin but I can't solve my problem. I do anything But Isn't work.

Blue screen usually includes an error code that will help you track down the specific issue. There are many potential causes for the screen to appear.

What’s the best method for 1000+ employees? The Excel/Visio method limits to 100 rows

[@thefamilyjohnson]

Kevin, it would be interesting to know how to create an interactive org chart in SharePoint using the Org Chart Webpart. I understand this can be done using Azure directory, but perhaps the Kevin Cookie Company's IT staff doesn't have the capacity to populate the needed manager information in Azure. So could a small department leader who would like to impress CEO Patti Fernandez create this SharePoint Organization Chart webpart using a SharePoint List instead? Or would they still need someone with admin privileges to help them with configuration? As you know, the Kevin Cookie Company has lots of SharePoint functionality locked down for lower level employees for security or control purposes, so if these lowly employees in distant departments can do things themselves with less IT support, that often is more successful. Thoughts?

[@engchoontan8483]

This should be fun to find those with leadership qualities for promotion. Get everyone to do it and fill in what they think are the duties, job-scope, responsibilities, accountability, delegated-powers, authorised-functions, transparency-accountability, authorisation-responsibility, delegation-accountability(your boss lazy), ... accounting standards of checks-and-balances applied to organisational-structure. Same for military to government to social-circles to in-game session-instance...

[@tasmanturner8974]

Can you add a column to the data table in excel, such as employee salary, and it shows up on the Visio org chart?

[@richsilvasatx]

Nice. But what we really need, anyone with a printer, is an app to determine actual ink levels. Those cartridges are sold at liquid gold prices.

[@4-7th_CAV]

R Silva ~ If you have an HP printer, you open your “Control Panel” and double-click on “Devices and Printers” then double-click on your printer it will open several options that can be selected. Of those options, double-click on the option named “HP Printer Status and Alerts”. The screen that opens, in the “Known Printers” window, will list your printer. Double-click on your printer and the next screen will show the status of all the ink cartridges of that printer. If you are not using an HP printer, I would think you would still be able to access the information you want to see. Good Luck, Fred

[@numair3]

Nice

For Visio, Microsoft has changed it to only for organization and school use, but my school disabled the store option so I can't install the plug-in.
