Use PowerPoint, Visio or similar software to create a WBS in chart form (similar to an organizational chart – see the example in Figure 5-2). Assume the level 1 categories are initiating, planning, executing, controlling and closing. Under the executing section, include level 2 categories of analysis, design, prototyping, testing, implementation, and support. Assume the support category includes level 3 items called training, documentation, user support, and enhancements.

This form of the WBS gives a very good visual representation of the work involved at each level and the relationships between levels.
