Presented by Lora McCoy • Regional Director, IIBA Americas Central
Stakeholders always approach you to proactively seek council on security, continuity and disaster recovery considerations for intended change, right? NO?! Very often, InfoSec is not considered (or downright avoided) when solutions are selected or defined. This can lead to significant delays, or even cancellation of change, which can become costly, frustrating and time consuming. It creates this viscous cycle of resistance to collaboration and mutual change enablement. Enter the Mr. T of the change world. BAs (Business Analysts) can leverage the BA discipline and associated techniques to not only ensure these often-unsung heroes of risk mitigation or (better yet) avoidance are engaged before implementation, but even enlist them as an actively consulted resource for technology change. (We really aren't that scary…really) In this session, we will introduce the idea of the BA, how to leverage the value of such on your change efforts and how to champion it in your organization.
