The Business Analyst’s Edge – Strategic Value Enabler

This half-day workshop will explore why most business analysts are excellent requirements-takers but struggle to show strategic value. This workshop diagnoses why: BAs often lack a shared model of value and change. Delegates get a hands-on taste of a proven model to reframe how they diagnose problems, explore valuable competencies that separate strategic BAs from order-takers and practise transforming vague requirements into visual models.

Through real case work and simulation, delegates leave with practical tools they can apply immediately, plus clarity on exactly where their own capability gaps sit and how to close them.

Key Takeaways

• A working model to diagnose why projects go wrong—not just where.
• Practical exposure to competencies that drive BA credibility and influence.
• Hands-on practice transforming vague requirements into clear, valuable visual models.
• A personal capability gap-map to guide your next development step.
