Our first podcast - How To Get Your Business Case Approved
April 2017
Hosted by Jon Baxter, with guest Dr Robina Chatham
The most simple business cases can struggle to get approved. Even when Jon wanted to do something as essential as installing a firewall at a relatively low cost, it took him three attempts to get sign-off.
Jon chats with Robina, who has many stories to tell from her several years as a CIO.
If you’re struggling to get your business case approved, Robina suggests that this is usually down to a communication issue of some sort. Personalities in the company may need to be managed. Some people are ‘bigger picture’ people, while others are more focussed on detail. Robina gives some tips on how to deal with these different characters.
Jon and Robina discuss the importance of credibility and style of presentation to the success of the business case.
