Align a project in six slides: why now, the goal, scope, timeline and working agreements.
Speaker notes
Name the project, the date and the outcome. Replace Lantern with the real name and keep the subtitle to what will be different when it ships.
The evidence for doing this now, then one verbatim customer line. The quote panel is intentionally small: it is a nudge, not the argument.
One measurable goal, three ways to know it worked. If you cannot measure it by the ship date, pick a different goal.
Make the boundary explicit. The right-hand card matters as much as the left: it is the permission the team needs to say no.
Three phases with a checkpoint each. Dates are the ship date and the demo dates, not optimistic wishes.
The behaviours that keep the project calm. Keep four; more than that and nobody remembers them.
