Present The Project Concept

Now you have to gain approval and consensus from management for the international project. Let’s start with how you go about working with management. In collecting the information on the current situation, you started to create grass roots support. With the development of the project concept, you can now involve management in trade-offs related to purpose, scope, roles, etc. This gets management involved and moves them toward commitment.

You also will have to present the project concept. Here is an outline to follow. Notice that there is no mention of the technical approach for the project. There is probably little interest, understanding, or time for this.

Overview of the current situation. Here you highlight some of the issues and problems today.
Impact if the issues and problems are not solved and the project is not undertaken.
Benefits and effects of the project after it is completed.
Costs and schedule of the project.
Roles and responsibilities.
Action items.

Does this outline look familiar? It should! It follows the general structure of successful television commercials.
