CSO — Project Review Meeting presentation template
Use as a talk track or deck outline. Keep business-outcome first; park deep technical dives unless Head of Delivery asks.
1. Context (2–3 min)
- Client situation and why now
- What the SOW promises (outcomes, not tasks)
- CSO as single accountable owner for success
2. Plan skeleton (5–8 min)
Walk Initiatives → Projects → Project milestones from the plan doc:
- What each milestone means for the client
- Dependencies (data access, stakeholders, other pods)
3. Timeline & risk (3–5 min)
- Where dates are hard vs directional
- Top 3 risks and mitigations
- What could force escalation
4. SL technical assurance (2 min)
- “SL has signed off on technical approach and effort” (or: specific questions still open)
- Invite Head of Delivery to pull SL in only if needed
5. Ask (1 min)
- Specific decision: approve / revise / pause pending X
