Practice Leads

A Practice Lead owns a practice — a methodology area such as Cybersecurity or Operations. They are the firm's point of accountability for the quality and consistency of work done under that practice.

Who can access​

Organization Admins assign Practice Leads. A Practice Lead is a firm user (a Member) with this added responsibility.

What a Practice Lead does​

  • Owns the methodology area — the standard of work for engagements in that practice.
  • Stewards the frameworks surfaced within the practice (your firm consumes published frameworks; the Lead decides how they're applied).
  • Supports consultants running assessments in that practice.

Step by step (assigning a Lead)​

  1. Open Practices as an Org Admin.
  2. Find the practice and assign a Practice Lead from your firm's users.
  3. The assigned user now owns that practice area.

Best practices​

  • One clear owner per active practice. Ambiguous ownership erodes methodology quality.
  • Pick a domain expert. The Lead should be the person best placed to judge whether a framework is being applied well to client evidence.
