How can you more effectively leverage business cases as opportunities to translate the Value of Change across your organization? What happens when you extend a traditional business case beyond the internal template you use? Often, business- and use- cases stop just at the point where they need to explore one millimeter further. When you ask the right questions the right way to continuously solve the right problems together, you not only solve problems together. You also build trust together.
When you extend a business case beyond the length of internal templates, you discover the story behind that business- or use-case. Instead of drilling down for root causality, what happens when you expand up? Learn how Complex / Wicked Problem Solving tools and a combination of courage, critical thinking skills, and curiosity transform business cases into legends people trust: your organization’s legacy. These are the stories people trust to get them to where they really need to go: together with you, time after time.
