Improving organizational Requirements Maturity is a strategic approach to improving project success and aligning IT with the business to meet objectives on time and on budget consistently.

According to the recent IAG BA Benchmark study of 437 large and medium organizations in North America and Europe, the organizational level of Requirements Maturity is directly proportional to the likelihood of project success.

Companies invest millions of dollars in recruitment, hiring, and training of Business Analysts every year without a detailed understanding of the role and how to integrate into the enterprise; the average Requirements Maturity level in North America is only 1.8 on a scale of 1-5, and only a fraction of those measured qualified at a level 3 or higher.

For individual and organizations that are serious about improving in a consistent and measurable way, IAG will explain the key concepts and results you can expect by improving organizational Requirements Maturity

Learning Objectives:

1. The impact of requirements maturity on overall business and project objectives.
2. The Requirements Maturity Model.
3. A high level roadmap to improving requirements capabilities.

We often try to bypass the uncertainties we encounter in our work as managers.

However, in this presentation I would suggest to you that by using simple principles from complexity thinking you might be managing uncertain contexts and decisions much better.

In the presentation Eitan Reich (LinkedIn profile) will describe how exactly complex, dynamic situations are different from simple and even complicated ones.

Also learn about key principles of complexity thinking that would be useful in your change projects and for your decision making, planning and managing processes.

Ask an IT organization to review its application project success track record over the past 10 to 15 years and chances are that they will express general satisfaction — most application projects are deemed to be successful.

Ask the current business managers what they think of the current portfolio of applications and they will express dissatisfaction — most applications are unpopular.

Discussion Topics:

• The root cause of this dichotomy and how can it be eliminated
• The difference between a successful project and a successful application
• How future application projects can ensure delivery of successful applications

Join Andy Kyte, (LinkedIn profile) VP & Gartner Fellow and learn how successful applications make for successful projects!

L&D business partners can provide significant value to their organizations by helping current and future business leaders to build the resilience to operate in a turbulent (“VUCA”) world.

Many challenging development questions co-exist in today’s business environment:

• How do we prepare senior-level directors to move into executive roles, where they will need to take business performance to the next level?
• How do we get our high-potentials to organize and operate as a business team, prioritize, and chart their own course as proactive change makers?
• How can we build business acumen, a growth mindset and emotional intelligence across functional areas?

A competitive business simulation is an immersive experiential exercise that can provide a powerful testing ground to address all of these fundamental challenges that face organizations across industries.

Learn:

• How a simulation can help participants to think and act systemically as a (future) business leader – learning to see and manage connections
• How to design a competitive business simulation, how to make it interactive, and in which situations to deploy it
• How the concept of meeting commitments translates to more robust operational plans, more effective strategy execution, and better business results
