A project champion (or project sponsor) is a person in a high position in the organization who strongly supports your project; advocates for your project in disputes, planning meetings, and review sessions; and takes whatever actions are necessary to help ensure the successful completion of your project.

As soon as you start planning, find out whether your project has a champion. If it doesn’t, try to recruit one. An effective project champion has the following characteristics:

 Sufficient power and authority to resolve conflicts over resources, schedules, and technical issues

 A keen interest in the results of your project

 A willingness to have their name cited as a strong supporter of your project
