Lesson 7: Prepare the presentation

A clear sponsor presentation gives the room evidence it can compare. Use the approved template to connect six sections, with about one minute for each. Start with the problem or opportunity. Explain who is affected, then name the specific completed outcome you are asking the Tiger Team to help deliver. Next, show the affected process and its handoffs. Give technologists enough context to ask scope questions, and make the solution boundary clear. For strategic value, connect the outcome to a business priority. Explain who benefits and how, so the group can compare the request from an enterprise view. For risk reduction, describe the exposure and its consequence. Show how the proposed outcome reduces that risk, using evidence the group can discuss. For time criticality, identify the deadline or opportunity. Explain what changes if delivery happens later, rather than relying on a general claim that the request is urgent. For cost savings or avoidance, show the cost reduced or prevented. Use real data or reasonable samples, state assumptions, and do not count the same benefit twice. Rehearse the six sections as one connected story. Clear evidence does not guarantee selection; it enables fair comparison. Now put the presentation sections in order.

Visual description: Six numbered sections form one presentation: Request, Process, Strategic value, Risk reduction, Time criticality, and Savings or avoidance. A problem or opportunity and affected people connect to one clearly bounded request sheet labeled Completed outcome. Three generic workflow steps connect with arrows. A highlighted handoff and dashed solution boundary identify what needs clarification; this is a schematic, not an actual operational process. A request connects to a target labeled Business priority, then to people labeled Who benefits and how. Exposure and consequence lead to a shield labeled Proposed outcome, ending in a clear Risk reduction relationship. A timeline branches at the deadline or opportunity marker toward Delivery now and Delivery later, with a prompt to explain what changes. No invented dates or losses appear. Data or samples and stated assumptions support a savings estimate, followed by a single-benefit check. No invented dollar amounts appear. The six numbered sections return as a compact sequence beside a timer labeled About six minutes. The final prompt asks learners to put the sections in order.
