Checklist before Start

Slide Content

The slide titled "Checklist before Start" presents a list of five essential elements to consider before commencing a project or process. These elements are:

• Agreed roles: Designating responsibilities to ensure clarity and avoid overlapping duties.
• Needed infrastructure: Securing the necessary facilities and systems to support the project.
• Right pilot: Selecting an appropriate initial test or trial to guide the full-scale project.
• Common understanding: Establishing shared knowledge and consensus among team members.
• Cross-functional team: Building a team with a diverse set of skills and expertise to cover all aspects of the project.

Graphical Look

• A large, stylized checkbox graphic dominates the right side of the slide, containing a checklist with items preceded by green check marks.
• The checklist is on a textured, yellowish background that looks like a crumpled piece of paper, giving it a tactile feel.
• A "Start" banner icon in orange and gray is positioned on the left side of the slide, illustrating the concept of beginning an initiative.
• The banner has a folded-over effect with shadowing, adding depth and perspective to the icon.
• The background of the slide is white, which makes the colorful icons and checklist stand out. The overall look of the slide is professional and easy to read, with a creative and engaging visual theme. The use of icons and checkmarks effectively communicates a sense of readiness and preparation.

Use Cases
