What's in this template
7 connected components you can rename, recolor, and extend with AI.
A RACI responsibility matrix maps tasks against roles to clarify ownership, marking each person as Responsible, Accountable, Consulted, or Informed for every activity. The grid removes ambiguity about who does the work, who owns the outcome, who provides input, and who simply needs to be kept in the loop.
Project managers, team leads, and operations teams use this matrix to assign clear ownership at project kickoff, prevent duplicated effort, and resolve decision-making confusion. It is a staple of project charters, process documentation, and cross-team initiatives where roles can easily blur.

How to customize this template
- Open it in the canvas with Use this template.
- Label boxes with the role first and the person second, so the chart stays useful after people change jobs.
- Mark open roles in their labels, such as Hiring: Senior Designer, so the chart doubles as a hiring plan.
- Write dotted-line relationships into the label, for example Data Analyst (dotted line to CFO), because they are easy to miss otherwise.
- Add an owner and a target duration to each hiring or onboarding stage, such as Recruiter screen (2 days), so delays become visible.
- Export a PNG or SVG for docs and slides, or a GIF or MP4 to keep the animation.
