Determining and communicating project value in the language
of business
1-Day Intensive Seminar Workshop
Companies are demanding reliable financial measures of proposed
projects’ value. Yet, project managers often don’t
know how to identify, calculate, or communicate a project’s
REAL ROI™ (Return on Investment). Traditional ROI calculations
increasingly are being criticized for telling only part of the
necessary story. The difficulty afflicts all types of projects
but often is greatest in areas like IT, where benefits may seem
intangible and frequent overruns impact estimates’ credibility.
This interactive workshop shows how to identify full-story key
effects on revenue and expense variables, reliably quantify
tangible and intangible costs and benefits, and convincingly
communicate the business value of project investments. Exercises
enhance learning by allowing participants to practice applying
practical techniques to a real case.
Participants
will learn:
* The financial information that business
decision makers need and demand.
* ROI and related calculations, strengths and weaknesses.
* Using ROI Value Modeling™ and the Problem
Pyramid™ to fully identify relevant costs
and benefits.
* Quantifying intangibles, risk, flexibility, and opportunity.
* Professionally presenting credible business value
measurements so people pay attention.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND: This course has been designed
for business, systems, and project managers as well as analysts,
implementers, users, and others who must know the return on
project investments.
