The data was randomly generated and consisted of 100 records of [Employee] and [Manager] fields so the chart is a bit wide and shallow. And yes Google Visualization allow you to put any HTML into the boxes so you could supply additional markup and information into it including hyperlinks to drilldown reports. It only took 25 lines of code using jQuery, the QuickBase HTTP API and the Google Visualization Library.
