The Adventurous BA: Transform Yourself Before Transforming Your Organization

Many business analysts feel unappreciated, undervalued, even resentful of what they consider a limited role of writing down requirements as stated by their stakeholders. These BAs complain that their role is not valued in their organization, and their efforts are never recognized with more visibility and responsibility. The reality is, most business analysts have the power to reshape their role. In this talk, Adriana Beal shows how analysts can propel themselves to a new place, position, and outlook.

Learning Objective

Understand and apply the new rules that allow you to raise your standards of performance, consistently deliver high-value solutions, and turn your stakeholders into charged up supporters who help move your agenda forward.
