# DARE

**DARE** is a decision-rights framework mentioned in the source alongside [[entity-raci-d1]] and [[entity-rapid-d1]] as a tool that can fail when **disconnected from real behavior** (see [[concept-decision-rights]]).

> **Canonical reference (enrichment):** DARE is presented in McKinsey's guidance as an **alternative to RACI when RACI creates confusion**, expanded as **Deciders, Advisors, Recommenders, Execution stakeholders**. Its point is to reduce ambiguity by explicitly separating who votes/decides, who advises, who recommends, and who executes — directly addressing the *Accountable vs. Responsible* problem in [[claim-raci-misunderstood]].
