Read through our short and simple guide down below to find out more.
1. Download and Install Publisher
Do you need an editing tool that’s easy to use and suitable for customizing our templates with? Then MS Publisher is the perfect fit for the job. If you don’t have access to using Publisher yet, you can simply visit the Microsoft Office Store to find it.

3. Fire up MS Publisher; Customize Your Template
Once you have Publisher installed and your desired template downloaded, it’s time to start editing. Since your template already comes with a predesigned layout, you can simply replace the placeholder text with the needed information for your flowchart.
Make sure to use a font with color and style that make the contents easy to read. Besides that, the information in each text bubble needs to make sense when following them in sequence. If needed, Publisher lets you add in your own pictures/images; having additional imagery can help in better conveying information to the reader. To further help you sort out the company departments, utilizing a planner is a good idea.
4. Save Your Work and Print as Necessary
Remember to save the changes to your flowchart template after you’re done putting it together. Go ahead and print out any needed paper copies for distribution, either to hand out individually or post on any noticeboards for relevant department staff to see.
By using MS Publisher and our customizable document templates, leading a workforce can be done without breaking a sweat!
