Synopsis

This volume is the companion workbook to Mastering Business Analysis Standard Practices. Designed for instructors, trainers, and students, this supplemental workbook should be used in conjunction with the main text and enables readers to practice the seven-step business analysis process they are learning with a realistic case study, exercises, and suggested solutions.

Key Features: presents a structured step-by-step process for performing business analysis that any new or experienced practitioner could follow, rather than having to piece the process together themselves; demonstrates how to plan the business analysis work effort and develop and execute communication and information management plans; and shows how to set up a project for success with a clear and concise scope definition boundary, maintain agreement on scope, and control scope in an ever-changing environment.

Review

“The real-life examples alone set this business analysis book apart from the others because you can see what really works in a variety of scenarios. Yet this reference is not only relevant to BA generalists, it is the first BA-related publication I’ve seen that addresses specializations.” —Colleen Meesey, CBAP, Product Manager, International Institute of Business Analysis

“... an invaluable guide for those who want a practical, actionable understanding of how to improve project success through business analysis practices. This should be required reading for all business analysts!” —Andy Kaufman, PMP, Author, Executive Coach, Institute for Leadership Excellence & Development

“... a much-needed literary contribution to a fast-emerging BA profession that requires communication, critical thinking, and a dash of collaborative genius.” —Todd Britton, CBAP, Director of PMO, NY Office of State Comptroller, IIBA Chapter President
