Presentation synopsis |
Business
Analysis knowledge for project managers? Absolutely!
While the Business Analyst position is still rather new
to many organizations, their primary role to define
and document user requirements and thereby help bridge
the gap between the client and the solution team, has
always been an essential ingredient for achieving
project success. There are usually not enough dedicated
Business Analysts to go around, therefore on small to
medium size projects the role, if not the title, of
business analysis often falls on the shoulders of the
project manager, or other core team members. In fact, to
help to enable project management success, business
analysts must productively elicit and then communicate
requirements in a way which the non-technical business
stakeholders understand, yet give the development team
all that they need to produce high-quality deliverables
within scope, on time and within budget.
For larger projects, it is important that the project
manager understand the value that a professional
Business Analyst will bring to the project. It is also
important that the Project Manager and Business Analyst
roles are clearly defined in such cases.
Participants will learn:
Highlight the interrelationship between PM, BA, and
SME roles
Introduce BA Knowledge Areas
Understand how business analysis benefits a project
Introduce core BA tools
Recognizing and resolving conflicts between PM and BA
Audience
This presentation is ideally suited to project managers
and business analysts. This workshop will focus on
building a healthy and cooperative relationship between
PM and BA for successful results.
