Business Analysis: Building successful business cases




Business Analysis: Building successful business cases

Are your ideas killer but they never get the attention or approvals they deserve? Are you struggling to articulate, break-down and plan on your business idea better?

Then you probably just need to polish up your business case writing skills. Ideating is great but if you want your ideas and you to win, then you need to convince others that your ideas are worth exploring and building out.

As they say, an average idea with strong conviction and great execution is 100x better than a great idea with lousy conviction and bad execution.

Ideas contribute to only 5% of the journey, rest 95% is execution and the first step to execution is a good business case.

In this course, we will learn how to take an idea and break it down to bite-size components? And how to fill in each component such as:

  1. Business Objectives

  2. Problem and Solution

  3. Target audience

  4. Resources and Financials

  5. Strategic Fit

  6. Risks and Mitigants

  7. Recommendation

  8. Finally, Executive Summary
