What if the most influential voices in business analysis aren’t the ones writing books, speaking at conferences or leading training but the ones who are talking with their peers about their experiences? In this episode of Business Analysis Live, I sit down with John Wisner, host of the BA Insights podcast, to explore how our everyday conversations impact the business analysis community. We talk about why connecting with peers matters, how creativity and adaptability fuel great analysis, and why sharing your authentic voice can break you out of your imposter syndrome mindset. From tailoring techniques to embracing AI, this episode is packed with insights for anyone who wants to rethink the importance of those breakroom conversations!🎙️Episode Highlights• Why conversations—not just conferences—shape the business analysis community• The origin story of the BA Insights podcast and its impacts• Creativity in business analysis: bringing your whole self to the work• Interviewing skills and adaptability as core business analysis strengths• Tailoring techniques vs. following the textbook• Using observation and practice to grow your skills and find your style• How AI is influencing the practice of business analysis 🔗 Resources
