What's in this RASCI Framework template

The toolkit is a three-page PDF to keep beside the work. Page one is the RASCI diagram - the five roles as a single picture, with the line between the people doing the work and the people who need to know. Page two is a summary card: what each role means, how to build a matrix, and the mistakes to watch for, all on one scannable page. Page three connects RASCI to the wider work of organisational design - making sure roles and accountabilities line up with how your organisation is structured. Print it, share it with your team, or drop the diagram into a slide.

Tips for using it

  • Name one Accountable per task. It is the single rule worth holding to - if two people seem to own something, raise it to the manager they share rather than splitting it.
  • Keep the Responsible and Consulted lists short. A crowded matrix quietly recreates the confusion it is meant to remove, so give each person a real slice rather than a vague share.
  • Agree it, do not impose it. The value is in the conversation - walk the matrix through with the people in it and adjust before it goes live.
  • Revisit it as roles change. A matrix filed away goes stale, so check it at the points where the work tends to shift.
