To clarify levels of authority and expectations around engagement in a regular work team or special project team.

During

The RAACI model requires the facilitator to challenge participants to integrate the following questions into Action Planning Sessions with groups.

* Responsibility (Which person and/or team will be taking action?)

* Authority (At what "point" must the responsible person check in before going further?)

* Accountability (Who must the responsible person check in with?)

* Consultation (Who must be consulted by the responsible person before decisions are made?)

* Information (Who must be informed of decisions, once made?)

After:

Document the agreements as a  guide and reminder for the individual and team.
