The time has come for the holistic Business Analyst
You are invited to join the Cape Town branch of the IIBA in enjoying Charlene's talk that was presented at the BASummit in 2018.
A holistic approach to business isn't necessarily a new concept. Models such as six sigma and McKinsey’s 7-S have long emphasised the need for a change in how we view a company's strategy and make decisions which benefits the company as a whole. This can however be taken a step further, where we explore the communities companies operated in, creation of shared values and realisation of sustainability.
What this means for Business Analysis is that the need for generalist Business Analysts is growing. Companies need Business Analysts who have a breadth of knowledge across all Business Analysis competencies backed by sound business knowledge. This will enable businesses to quickly recognise problems and opportunities, assess impacts and find innovative solutions. This will allow businesses to not only react to changes in the market, but respond in such a way that it potentially transforms the way things are done.
