TRM’s Framework<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

The Responsibility Matrix’s unique design elements make it Simple, Practical, Complete, and Sustainable. These design elements fall into two groups: the basic building blocks that shape TRM’s unique nature and the best practices that implement them. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Organizations often use org charts as their fundamental organizing structure. TRM shifts that focus. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Instead of job descriptions as nodes in an Org Chart, TRM focuses on individual Responsibilities<\/mark><\/strong> as nodes in a Responsibility Matrix. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It moves the focus from ‘who reports to whom’ to ‘how things get done’. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

And that simple shift is the start of something big.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
