Overview
This workshop will provide a step-by-step approach to writing business cases. We use the key steps identified by Her Majesty’s Treasury guidance for business cases as the basis for the day. We work through the stages required to develop a business case using examples and group work as we proceed. The focus of the day is to understand the thinking behind business cases and to focus on what your organisation will require you to demonstrate to prove the case. The participants are encouraged to use their own experience with business case, where possible. We finish off the session with consideration of how to present your case to your organisation.
