I am trying to: Sort by taxonomy in a view and I don't have the option. I created a custom shortcode that takes the department taxonomy a person belongs to and adds it as a header so it only appears once. The issue is it appears more than once since I'm not able to sort by the department taxonomy.

Link to a page where the issue can be seen: hidden link

I expected to see:

Instead, I got:

Hello,

I suggest you try with a nested view, for example:
1) Parent taxonomy view
- Query terms of "department" taxonomy
- Display below child post view

2) Child post view:
- Query "person" posts
- Filter by:
Select posts with taxonomy:
"department" set by the parent Taxonomy View
