    Summary

    Getting the buy-in of senior managers and other key stakeholders is vital for a successful retrofit project. Without firm support, you will never get the project off the ground.

    To get buy-in, you must tell a convincing story. Facts and projections are not enough. People must feel the importance of the project.

    This toolkit will help you create and deliver a compelling story.

    Who should use the toolkit?

    This toolkit is aimed at the project leadership, who need to create and sustain commitment from their senior managers. This is one of their key roles.

    When should you use the toolkit?

    From the beginning of the project, develop and use the project story. At each stage of the project, the toolkit can help you get permission from decision-makers to move to the next phase of development and delivery.

    From initial thoughts to outline, formal business case and delivery plan, and execution. Your story will help you navigate each checkpoint and will grow with the project.
