How to include your Blueprinter project in the Executive Dashboard
Your business leaders see a Dashboard with all Blueprinting projects. Here's how to make sure yours is included.
What is the Executive Dashboard?
Your business leaders have access to an Executive Dashboard, where they can see the progress of all Blueprinter projects:
- What step it is in (Market Research, Discovery, Preference, etc).
- How many interviews have been completed... and scheduled.
- When you expect to complete your project's Market Case.
Here are the steps you should take to ensure your project is included:
Step 1: Open Project Settings
Open your Blueprinter project, click the "hamburger menu" in the upper left, and click "Project Settings."
Step 2: Complete Project Settings
In the Project Settings window, complete the following:
- Click ""Tracked. Visible to executives"
- Select which Blueprinting Step your project is at.
- Enter your Market Case goal date. (You can change this later.)
- Complete the remaining fields to describe your project.
Step 3: Updates
Want to communicate more detail to your business leaders and/or those monitoring projects? Use the "update" field on your project's Home Page...
Keywords: Executive Dashboard, project update, Blueprinter, project settings, hamburger menu, Market Case, business leaders, progress update, tracked, Market Case goal.
