TaliaLancaster

I started my career as a Management Consultant in the Learning and Development industry designing bespoke eLearning solutions for corporates. I then discovered Agile software development, a new philosophy for delivering projects and working with teams. So I moved into the IT industry finding my passion working as a Scrum Master in Agile teams, helping to improve team collaboration and communication by encouraging new ways of working.

I have now launched my own company, Go Do Collective, focussing on creative solutions, consulting and design. Throughout my life I have always been a “compulsive note-taker”. In meetings, training and conferences I have used this as a way to concentrate and understand certain topics. Over the years this doodling has evolved into more of a visual note-taking technique and a visual thinking approach which I currently share with teams.

At BA Summit 2018, Talia co-facilitated the pre-conference workshop “The Business Analyst as a team lift-off facilitator” alongside Angie Doyle, exploring the Team Canvas and facilitation techniques for helping teams work together more effectively.
