Spider Chart Template

About the Spider Chart Template

The Spider Charts, also known as star plots, present an effective way for people to express their thoughts and ideas while prioritizing them based on their relative importance.

This type of diagram is valuable when dealing with complex information, as it allows for a clear visualization of the most significant items positioned in the central circle. Meanwhile, less important items are placed in the outer circles, which are progressively farther from the center. By using a radar spider chart, people can better understand the relationships between different pieces of information and make more informed decisions.

Benefits of using the Spider Chart Template

• Expose people's perspectives.

• Illustrate people's rankings.
