Being Beyond a Resource
Usually Business Analysts are viewed as resources, from both a project and a business perspective. This is because for many years BAs focused on delivery as opposed to the value each delivery yielded. The era we are currently in calls for a value-creation mindset. The value that one adds needs to speak for them when cost-cutting exercises come into play.
This workshop will cover the following key points:
- Creating value in you as a person.
- Identifying value-adding opportunities in your craft.
- Creating synergies between business value and customer value.
- Benefits harvesting.
Key Takeaways
- Do not settle on being a Resource; be a Treasure.
- Be intentional about being a person of value in your craft.
- Know the value you add to each project you work on.
- Involve yourself in measuring the success of a project, beyond Go-live.
