Being a Biz Analyst

Biz Analyst Moments: Stakeholder type switching from my experience.

You might be thinking this Adam sounds a little ridiculous, I cannot imagine a person switching roles as much as he is talking about. Or maybe you are thinking, maybe he switches roles but I do not see it happening in my own experience.

Hopefully, this episode will give you insight into not only how much I have had the experience of role switching, but also help you to begin to identify just how much you too are switching stakeholder types and the importance of doing so.

Biz Analyst Moments: Have a mindset of discovery! This is what I like to think of as the Indiana Jones mindset, as you are always curious about all the different roles for a specific initiative.

Biz Analyst Moments: BABOK talk on role switching! There are 11 different types of stakeholders described in the BABOK; anyone can-and will- play any of them, at any time, on an initiative!

Know how to identify the stakeholder types each person on your initiative is playing, and any gaps that might need to be filled.
