May 2018 IIBA Phoenix Meeting (PDM) - Business Analysis in an Agile World with Jeremy Wood, Matrix Resources

Tuesday, May 8, 2018 -
6:00pm to 8:00pm

As organizations continue to move towards Agile Project Management approaches to keep up with fast paced market demands, the role of a business analyst must adapt as well. Suddenly, the world of requirements gathering, creating BRDs, and diagramming looks very different. Some organizations provide plenty of training for PMs who have moved to a ScrumMaster role and business people who have become Product Owners; but lack the same training and guidance for BAs. Come and join the conversation around the myths, processes, and practices in how effective BAs make the transition from Waterfall to an Agile world.
Learning Objectives
     *   Common BA activities in an Agile World
     *   Requirements solicitation
     *   Agile Documentation
     *   And much more
