In this lesson
present a solution in business terms with a clear ask.
Planned topics
- Open with the decision you need, then the reason: value, cost, risk, timing, and what happens if we do nothing.
- Use business language: orders, stock accuracy, store hours saved, rather than service names.
- Show options considered and why this one, in one slide; give the headline cost and benefit with key assumptions stated.
- Name the top three risks with mitigations, and the next steps with owners and dates.
- Keep it short: ten minutes, plus backup material for questions.
