Being a Business Analyst means metaphorically turning over stones across any change initiative; it is to help discover and verbalize stakeholder unknowns. Over the years I quietly became very good at these, but also bringing it all home to delivery. Now, there is no technique I don't want to master. No project is too intimidating. Business Analysis really is a calling for me. My long path in IT Infrastructure took me through diverse systems administration, compliance, IT projects, technical writing, training, security, quality assurance, and operational readiness. Voids were filled with a MBA and niche credentials. And now…?Strategy Analysis x Traceability Matrix + Process Model ^ Quality Assurance / David Bowie = MEWhat’ll you have? Let’s get going. There are friends to make, chances to take, and the greatest days are ahead of us.
