Georgiana is currently the BA Lead for an Asia Pacific Portfolio and was brought on board to develop a Centre of Excellence across the BAs in 11 countries.

This talk is how she is implementing this to align practices across all BAs in the region. They’re delivering international projects so it’s invaluable for stakeholders they receive documentation that is consistent from all projects. It’s important they experience the same level of service at every stage, regardless of the BA. She implemented a BPM tool for consistency across process mapping. She will share where she met resistance and where she met celebration.

Another benefit is internal learning and development pathways. Understanding the progression from a Junior BA to a Principal BA by learning from peers saves training costs and encourages best practice.

You can implement a COE whether you’re a team of 3, or spanning multiple countries, the benefits are still impactful and elevate the status of the BA in the organisation

She can talk candidly about her experiences and take the listener on a journey through ups and downs and end on a high. She brings her career along for the ride and discusses how each of these topics have had an impact, positively or negatively.
