Project update

Presentation guide

Stakeholders are well-placed to guide projects, solve problems and endorse decisions. By regularly sharing project progress and challenges, you will get the most out of stakeholders and keep your project on track.

What’s it for

For keeping stakeholders informed and engaged - and keeping your team accountable for delivering work that’s been planned.

What you’ll get

Stakeholder endorsement for the decisions and actions being made along the way, and support on critical issues.

When to do it

Set a regular meeting with stakeholders at the start of the project, with enough time between meetings to make meaningful progress as a project team. As a guide, agile teams tend to favour fortnightly updates.
