Design and Structure
The Tabbed Arrow Process Diagram uses a balanced horizontal composition. It presents each step as a separate card, which helps users compare stages at a glance. The top tabs highlight the sequence, and the arrow shapes reinforce movement. The bottom markers add visual anchors that help viewers remember the meaning of each step.
This structure works well when you want to simplify a complex process. You can use the first card for discovery, the second for planning, the third for execution, and the fourth for results. You can also adapt the labels for customer journeys, training modules, project delivery, or marketing funnels.
