If you are looking to introduce a new SharePoint 2013 farm or an upgrade to SharePoint 2013 in your organisation and need to get some quick information put together to your manager or CIO, then I suggest the following guide from Microsoft:

Some of my notes:

• Its not as comprehensive as you might want it to be… consider it a good start to whet the appetite of your technical managers, infrastructure managers or CIO.
• Its not a full-on ‘marketing sharepoint features’ document… I see it as intended for a technical audience who have the role as ‘decision makers’ with you as an ‘influencer’
• Broadly with three headings – Manage Cost, Manage Risk and Manage Your Time, it neatly presents some of the new and improved offerings of SharePoint 2013.
• If you want to gather more features and dive deeper, you might want to consider another document.
• I hope you get some interest and support in SharePoint 2013 with you as an influencer. Its by far the best SharePoint platform version ever – there you have it in writing!
