Business Case Skill

Goal

To articulate the Why behind a project. This skill generates a structured business case that justifies investment through clear problem definition, solution analysis, and financial projection. It bridges the gap between a raw idea and a formal project requirement.

Steps

1. Problem Definition (The "Pain")

   • Identify the core business problem or opportunity.
   • Quantify the impact of doing nothing (Status Quo analysis).
   • Prompt: "What is broken? How much is it costing us in time, money, or opportunity?"

2. Strategic Alignment

   • Map the initiative to company goals (OKRs, KPIs).
   • Identify stakeholders and distinct user groups.
