This visualization explains how workforce headcount changed over Q1 (Jan 1 to Mar 31) using a simple and focused waterfall chart.
Instead of just showing the final number, the visual highlights the drivers behind the change including hiring, internal transfers, and employee exits to clearly tell the story of workforce movement.
Key Highlights:
- Starting workforce on Jan 1: 85 employees
- Hires: +12 employees
- Internal Transfers: -4 employees
- Employee Exits: -6 employees
- Ending workforce on Mar 31: 87 employees
- Net Change: +2 employees
Despite strong hiring activity, exits and transfers offset most of the gains, resulting in a modest overall increase in headcount.
This approach focuses on clarity and storytelling by using a single visual, supported by contextual insights, to make workforce changes easy to understand and actionable.
