Portfolio Development Workshop

Turn one project into an evidence-led case study.

01Choose the audience

Name the role or opportunity, likely reviewer and the capability you need to demonstrate. Avoid a portfolio that attempts to speak equally to everyone.

02Select the evidence

List the project problem, your role, collaborators, constraints, key decisions and available evidence. Mark confidential material and get permission before publishing it.

03Build the narrative

Outline context, problem, your contribution, alternatives, decisions, output, evaluation and reflection. Show why the work changed rather than displaying every artefact.

04Audit each claim

For every metric or result, record the source, period, your contribution and limitations. If results were not measured, state what was tested or learned instead.

05Test the story

Ask someone to review the case study briefly. Can they explain the problem, your contribution and one important decision? Record confusion, then revise the first screen or sequence.
