Course overview
A business case is a document that presents a comprehensive analysis and justification for a proposed business initiative, project or investment.
Business cases are a means of giving decision-makers a clear understanding of a proposed initiative, including details of the opportunity, potential benefits, costs, possible risks and feasibility assessments. A clear, well written document is a means of presenting a proposed initiative and demonstrating how it will add value to the organisation and help to prioritise investment.
During this half-day course for in-house lawyers and the legal sector, the expert trainer will cover best practise in writing business cases, cover what to include in your rationale and explain how to put them to best use to give you a greater chance of proposing a successful business initiative.
This training course is part of our collection of Leadership & Management Training Courses which focus on leadership, innovation, strategy, communication, finance, problem solving and conflict management, to name a few key areas.
