1. Outcome
What result or standard needs to be true?

2. Observable expectation
What should someone be able to see or verify?

3. Owner
Who owns the next action? Avoid group ownership.

4. Support
What resources, decisions, or help does the owner need?

5. Checkpoint
When will progress be reviewed? What evidence will be checked?

6. Consequence
What happens if the commitment is met? What happens if it is missed?

7. System review
If it is missed, ask: Was the expectation clear? Did the owner have support? Was the checkpoint soon enough? Was the consequence known?
