Successfully navigating stakeholder meetings requires strong stakeholder participation and communication skills.

It is critical to build stakeholder relationships and raise their level of skill to ensure business analysis activities produce high quality results.

Often, stakeholder meetings can devolve into a children’s soccer game – with participants not knowing when to chase the ball, defend the net, or stop for a snack.

This webinar will:

  1. Eexplore the relationship between the Business Analyst and project stakeholders.
  2. Provide Business Analysts with techniques to manage stakeholder dynamics, improve communication, and raise the level of participation in business analysis activities.
  3. Help Business Analysts understand the techniques and approaches for handling difficult stakeholders
  4. Highlight the importance of the relationships between the Business Analyst and stakeholders and the corresponding impact on effective requirements gathering.

Course Learning Objectives Include:

  • Understand the stakeholder role and the reality of conflicting stakeholder needs.
  • Recognize the importance of communicating and managing stakeholder expectations.
  • Understand how to effectively manage stakeholders and recognize when to change tactics.

With the Course You Will Receive:

  • Access to the Live and Recorded Version of Webinar
  • Personalized Certificate of Attendance

Live Webinar October 4th, 2013 8:00 AM – 9:00 AM EDT
Duration: 1 Hour Credits: 1 PDU Category C Free
Presented by : O’Reilly® Webcasts

Johan Bergström, (LinkedIn profile) Associate Professor at Lund University, Sweden, will introduce the notion of risk in system design.

Following up on Richard Cook’s highly appreciated talk on safety in complex systems, during last year’s velocity conference, Johan will introduce how our risk management strategies are affected by our very perceptions of risk as a concept.

  • Are we running risks or taking risks?
  • Are we successful when we take risks or when we avoid them?
  • Can risk ever be controlled, contained, mitigated or measured?

One risk we might have to take (or run?) is that the lecture will raise more questions than it will suggest answers.

Join Johanan for his an exclusive presentation from Velocity 2013 conference.

Presenter: Johan Bergström is responsible for running the Master Program of Human Factors and Systems Safety from Lund University in southern Sweden..
