Prepare your Roles & Responsibilities (RACI)
A Successful Launch Requires a Strong Team. The RACI matrix clarifies who is responsible for specific tasks, who is accountable for the outcomes, who needs to be consulted during the project, and who should be kept informed about progress. By establishing a RACI matrix, you ensure clear communication, streamline decision-making, and prevent overlaps or gaps in responsibility. This structured approach helps in managing expectations, enhancing collaboration, and ensuring the successful completion of the implementation.
