One of the ongoing questions in the business analyst profession from those who manage business analysts to the business analysts themselves is “how do we measure business analysts?”

Since much of the success that business analysts achieve is based, in good part, on the work that others perform (as are the business analyst failures) it is difficult to carve out specific metrics that the business analyst (or the business analyst’s manager) can point to which support their claim to success or not.

But there may be some critical success factors in the profession that determine whether a business analyst is performing successfully, with excellence, or just adequately. Or worse…

This webinar discusses the problems of business analyst metrics and how business analysts are typically measured in terms of their overall success.

We have all faced the challenge before. We’ve been asked to solve a problem. Sometimes, the request is to actually implement a specific solution. Months of work and thousands of dollars of investment later, however, things don’t get any better.

All too often, the problem that presents itself at the outset of a project isn’t the real problem at all.

It might be a symptom of the problem. It may be proxy for the the real problem. At times, what we think we are doing is only tangentially related to the real work that needs to be done.

Digging out root causes is a skillset that matters. Taking the time to explore a problem before moving on to a solution is a vital capability. Figuring out what the actual problem is—and not what is described or perceived—is essential to ultimate success.

In this webinar, Mark Mullaly (LinkedIn profile) author of Researching the Value of Project Management provides essential insights into how to explore and evaluate problems, how to identify and explore causal relationships, and how to do the necessary but difficult work of getting to root causes.

If problem solving is essential to your role—and when it isn’t it?—this is a webinar that you won’t want to miss.
