Creating annual performance goals for Business Analysts can be a challenge. Here are tips for goal setting and some sample goals to help you achieve the right outcomes.
A Lightning Cast is a shorter form episode modeled after lightning talks. You’ll get valuable content in 8 minutes or less.
WHY SETTING GOALS IS IMPORTANT
Annual goal setting helps you to focus on specific outcomes and achieve things that matter. The metrics related to those goals can also help you to understand what success looks like.
When setting goals, think about the outcome you want for your career and for your organization. What goal, if you achieved it, would have the greatest impact on you and your organization?
GOALS AND METRICS FOR BUSINESS ANALYSTS
Typical goals for Business Analysts often center around requirements quality and speed of delivery.
The goal that most directly relates to performance for Business Analysts is achieving a specific stakeholder net promoter score. A net promoter score is a value between -100 and 100 based on the stakeholder response to the question:
Would you recommend this Business Analyst to a colleague or for a future project?
The stakeholders rate your performance on a scale of 0 to 10 (10 being very likely). To calculate the net promoter score, subtract the percentage of stakeholders who score you a 9 or 10 from those who score you a 6 or below.
An example of a goal related to net promoter score is: Achieve an average net promoter score of 80 for all projects completed in 2019.
