​​Hi analysts!⭐️
What do you think about tech skills for BA?

As a Business Analyst you’ve definitely heard about the Agile manifesto. It says that communication (a soft skill) is over documentation and tools. As most Business Analysts work in an agile environment, in comparison we can consider Hard Skills to be less important. However, the deeper understanding of customer’s business and the software to be developed you’d like to get, the more often you need hard skills. What are these? We will tell you about it in this article.

1. Data analysis: The ability to analyze and interpret complex data sets. This includes skills in data modeling, data mining, and data visualization. Power BI and Tableau can be found in job requirements denoscriptions much more often than years ago.

2. Technical knowledge: A business analyst in IT should have a good understanding of the technical aspects of the systems they are working with. This includes knowledge of databases and software development methodologies.
In one of our previous posts we also talked about knowledge of programming languages which is not a must and sometimes can even hinder you. Though there are some projects where this knowledge is almost a must (eg.: transition from monolithic to microservice architecture).

3. Business process modeling: The ability to model business processes is important for a business analyst in IT. This includes skills in process mapping and designing.

4. Requirements documentation: A business analyst in IT should be able to elicit, gather and document requirements from stakeholders. This includes skills in interviewing, surveying, and facilitating workshops etc.

5. Project management: A business analyst in IT should have a good understanding of project management methodologies and tools. This includes skills in project planning, scheduling, and risk management.

6. Quality assurance: A business analyst in IT should have knowledge of quality assurance methodologies and tools. This includes skills in testing, defect tracking, and quality metrics.

7. Last but not least: BA has to cope with process modeling using different diagrams.

There are many ways to gain technical skills such as studying theory from books/articles, passing a course on a specific topic and working on a project. We recommend you to start with a course on platforms such as Coursera, Udemy. Also some professional networks like LinkedIn have a solid knowledge base with 16.000+ courses. You can practice theoretical knowledge with tutorials and simulators such as www.w3schools.com. Most tools have created their own tutorials such as Power BI tutorial. And of course the final step is to gain practical experience on a real project.

Good luck with that!

Hi analysts!⭐️
Recently you may read this post where you can find tips to improve stakeholder engagement.
Today I have the article "Navigating Client Vision: A Guide to Addressing Misconceptions".

In the realm of business analysis, effective communication plays a paramount role in ensuring project success. The relationship between a business analyst and a client is built on trust and collaboration. While clients bring their valuable insights and expectations, misunderstandings can arise. It's essential to recognize that these misconceptions aren't indicative of failure, but rather opportunities for productive dialogue. However, there are instances when a client's vision doesn't entirely align with the project's objectives. In this article, we will explore strategies for delicately addressing situations where a client's perspective needs refinement.
