Delegation canvas

What should be delegated, to whom, with what authority, context, and checkpoints?

Template preview

Start with a clear working structure.

The delegation canvas turns a recurring piece of work into a record that another person can understand and continue. The working view makes outcome, rationale, and owner visible so discussion can move from general opinion to a specific action or decision.

Step 1Context and intent

Define the measurable result, target group, deadline, evidence of success, and guardrail that must not deteriorate. Explain which evidence and criteria were decisive, which trade-offs were accepted, and why the rejected alternatives were not preferred. Complete the remaining items so this section is ready for review and use.

Step 2Assessment and design

State the choice, accountable decision-maker, rationale, decision date, rejected alternative, and trigger for revisiting it. Include only context that changes the work; separate verified facts, assumptions, constraints, and unresolved questions. Complete the remaining items so this section is ready for review and use.
