RACI Matrix
A one-page responsibility chart that settles the question every project stalls on: who actually owns what? Name the project, list your tasks down the left and your people or roles across the top, then mark each cell with one letter — R (Responsible, does the work), A (Accountable, owns the outcome), C (Consulted, gives input first), or I (Informed, kept in the loop). A four-part legend prints across the top so nobody has to remember what the letters mean. The discipline that makes it work is one A per row: every task needs a single owner who is answerable for it. Too many A's and no one owns it; too many R's and it stalls in committee. Print it filled to circulate a decision, or blank to divide the work up live in the room.
