Loss of Project Sponsorship

If you lose your sponsor (through job change, health problem, resignation, or retirement), find a new sponsor. Document the value of your project and the consequences of failure to convince an appropriate high-level individual to support your project. Possible candidates include people who will suffer consequences if your project fails and managers who could (and might) cancel your project.
