The drawing

What a pyramid chart is.

A pyramid chart stacks related levels from a broad base to a narrow peak. It is useful when the order, hierarchy or relative breadth of the levels matters more than exact measurement.

The labels should explain the progression on their own. If the chart needs to show people or money flowing from one stage to the next, a descending funnel chart is often the clearer choice.

FAQ

Common questions

What is a pyramid chart?

A pyramid chart is a layered chart that represents a hierarchy, progression or relative distribution. The largest or broadest layer is usually at the bottom and the most selective level at the top.

What is the difference between a pyramid and a funnel chart?

A pyramid emphasizes levels in a hierarchy and grows toward its base. A funnel usually shows a process losing volume from one stage to the next, with the largest stage at the top.

How many levels should a pyramid chart have?

Four to six levels are usually readable at a glance. Combine closely related levels if labels become too small or the distinction is not important to the audience.

Can I customize a pyramid chart?

Yes. Ask to add, remove or rename levels, change their order, or adjust the title and data values behind the relative widths.
