Host Susan Moore teams up with Steve Jones, a business analysis professional, IIBA Hartford chapter leader, and co-host of Analysts After Dark. They explore the often underrated but incredibly useful technique of observation and how it can bring deeper context to your analysis work. And it’s not just about seeing—observation involves all your senses. When done right and validated, it can sharpen communication, boost agility, build empathy, and strengthen relationships.

From crafting models and solving problems to acing discovery sessions, they cover the many ways observation can elevate your analysis game. Plus, they talk about upcoming IIBA Hartford chapter events and how you can connect with business analysis professionals worldwide!
