  What you will discover:

  • What role does a business case play in decision making?

  • How to build a high-impact financial argument?

  • Why ROI is not enough and how to structure a convincing presentation?

  • The implicit but decisive expectations of an arbitration committee

  Who is this module for?

  It is aimed at any professional involved in the presentation, analysis, or validation of investment projects, particularly in finance, management control, or purchasing functions. Whether you are an actor or evaluator of a business case, this module will help you level up.
