INTRODUCTION

You have developed a project charter for your quality improvement project. Now is the time to “showcase” your work. In this assessment, you will submit your poster to disseminate your results in a professional manner. Now is a good time to think about how you will sustain these improvements in terms of organizational commitment and leadership. Heinrich (2021) states: “Instead of getting to the end and asking, ‘Now that we’ve made some great improvements, what can we do to continue them?’ you need to think about that aspect from the very beginning” (para 2). Active involvement of leadership, organizational support and commitment, and an understanding that “team” matters are aligned with quality improvement success.

OVERVIEW

Presenting information to an audience is a common skill that is needed for leaders who work in health care today. At some time in your career, you might attend a conference in person or virtually to share information about a project. Many health care conferences now include virtual poster presentation sessions.

For this fourth assessment, you will showcase your work as you consider what you learned while developing the Project Charter in the previous three assessments. You can use the Project Charter Poster Template file to serve as a guide to complete this final assessment. You can be creative in terms of format, color, images, graphs, etc. as long as you address the assessment criteria.

  • Assessment 1: Project Charter Part 1.
  • Assessment 2: Project Charter Part 2.
  • Assessment 3: Project Charter Part 3.
  • Assessment 4: Project Charter Part 4: Poster Presentation.

The purpose of this assessment is to give you practice presenting the project charter that you have designed in a poster format. You will include the gap analysis, the problem statement, the AIM statement, the planned intervention, the project team, the data management plan, next steps if you were going to implement this project, and lessons learned during this process.

PREPARE

Access, download, and review the Project Charter Poster Template [PPTX] and/or the Project Charter Poster Template [PDF] file that you will use to complete this assessment. The template is designed to offer space for all of the information required in this assessment, but you are welcome to reorganize the template as appropriate to best present the specifics of your project charter. You are also welcome to use your creativity with the overall visual design of your poster, as long as you make sure your presentation is aligned to the requirements in the scoring guide.

For an example of the completed assessment, access and review the Project Charter Poster Exemplar [PPTX] and/or the Project Charter Poster Exemplar [PDF] resource.

SCENARIO

You are a health care leader who has just finished your first Project Charter. Imagine that you have been invited to present your project in the form of a poster to your organization or at a professional conference. Prepare your poster to succinctly describe the different parts of your project in text, pictures, and graphs or statistics.

How might the results of the project be communicated to sponsors, stakeholders, and team members? Think about how the project will benefit the target population, the organization, and those served. How does this project demonstrate leadership in terms of a process change for those served, the organization, and/or the profession?

INSTRUCTIONS

Using the Project Charter Poster Template [PPTX] and/or the Project Charter Poster Template [PDF], complete the following to create a poster that acts as a visual presentation of your Project Charter:

  1. Apply your creativity while using charts, graphs, and visual images to tell your story for the change improvement you have created and the value to those served. The Project Charter Poster Template will help organize your information, but feel free to change the colors, rearrange sections, and otherwise use it to meet the requirements for the assessment.
  2. Include a title at the top of the poster.
  3. Include a Gap Analysis that identifies the gap (difference between the current state and desired state in measurable terms), how the gap was identified, and why improvement is needed (importance/relevance).
  4. Include the problem statement (1–2 sentences) that focuses on one specific area that can be realistically solved and identify the effect on the population.
  5. Include the AIM Statement including the SMART Objectives, who will benefit, what will be done, where the change will occur, the timeline, and the impact on the population/process.
  6. Planned Intervention: Include the proposed intervention, who will be involved in implementation, the process for the implementation, e.g., when, where, and how, and the potential effects on the population/process
  7. Project Team: List the team members, stakeholders, executive sponsor, and team leader, and their roles and contribution to the project (why they were selected).
  8. Data Management Plan: Describe the data management plan including what data will be collected, who will collect the data, when it will be collected, the storage and protection of the data, and its interpretation and utilization (think about diversity, inclusion, and use of data).
  9. Next Steps/Lessons Learned: What do you anticipate as the next 2–3 steps if you were actually going to implement this change? What is your anticipated outcome of the planned intervention? How will you know if it is successful? What lessons did you learn via this process?

ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS

Your assessment should meet the following requirements:

  • Written Communication: Use short but complete sentences that are clear, comprehensible, and free of jargon for each paragraph or bullet point.
  • Length of Presentation: Complete all fields of the Project Charter Poster Template succinctly but thoroughly.
