What is a Responsibility Grid?

Responsibility Grid - A useful tool to help the project team sort out “who will do what” in terms of decision making.

 

uBased on the theory that not all constituents have the same vested interest in the decisions the team will make.
uIt can help the team identify the areas where they need to be “politically” sensitive to the needs and desires of various groups and individuals as they relate to activities (execution), decisions and milestones of the project.
 
Timing:
uProbably most useful when the team has a need to mobilize commitment to yield a detailed action plan.
uAlso, useful when the team has arrived at a major decision point.

 Uses of the Responsibility Grid?
Project teams who have used this tool have found it very useful in sorting out who will do what with respect to overall action plan for the project, rather than in the more traditional way of identifying who needs to be “in the loop” with regard to decision making.
u
Useful in building accountability and setting expectations
uCreate an environment where everyone feels welcome, respected and safe.
u
Provide learning that fosters inclusion and reflects multicultural values and perspectives.
u
Celebrate human differences and recognize socially constructed differences.

This matrix allows groups to find the actions most directly related to their responsibilities.
