Layout Pattern

RACI Matrix

Grid showing who is Responsible, Accountable, Consulted, and Informed for each task. Ends ownership ambiguity.

How to Use It

RACI slides resolve "who owns this" debates. Rows are tasks or decisions, columns are roles or people, cells hold the letters R, A, C, I (one A per row - only one person is accountable). Color-code for scannability. Best used in program kickoffs, cross-functional initiatives, and escalation-path reviews. Keep to 10-15 rows per slide; detailed RACIs belong in a doc, not a slide. Always highlight the Accountable column - that is the one that matters when things go wrong.
