If you're a WLP professional tasked with implementing an evaluation project at the ROI level, then you need support for resource allocation in all phases of ROI implementation, including evaluation planning, data collection, data analysis, and communication of results. In fact, any performance improvement initiative that seeks to demonstrate results at Level 3 or above will require approval of time, money, expertise, and resources. Approval must come from a committed sponsor who has the authority and desire to provide the appropriate direction, support, resources, and rewards to ensure that the evaluation project will be implemented as planned.
