The DACI Framework Training Presentation is a facilitation-ready deck that introduces the DACI decision-making framework – a structured approach to clarify roles and responsibilities in group decision-making.
DACI stands for:
• Driver – Leads the decision-making process and ensures progress.
• Approver – Has final authority to approve or reject decisions.
• Contributor – Provides input, expertise, and recommendations.
• Informed – Receives updates and outcomes but does not actively participate.
While DACI builds on the well-known RACI Responsibility Assignment Matrix, it provides greater clarity and accountability by designating a single Driver and Approver. This deck explains both frameworks and highlights when DACI is more effective than RACI, making it a valuable resource for teams seeking to improve collaboration and decision-making.
