The Playful BA: Creating a Business Playground

This training is focused on getting hands-on in the art of being playful, within a project and as a team. Bringing play and games to a project brings out more from our stakeholders and earlier. We can identify and prioritise requirements and identify statutory/policy needs using cards and stickers. Elicit benefits and risks by prototyping with Lego. Eight bins suddenly becomes a game for all to identify Lean wastes. Treat your documentation like your groceries and add a best before date instead of just the endorsed one.

Expect Lego, colourful stationery, butcher paper, stickers, play doh and more as you deliver a complete project in a day in a playful manner.

This training takes 1 day

This complete training needs to be delivered in person due to the hands-on nature and the materials being supplied.

Branding The BA, The Project, The Team

Business Analysts generally forget they are selling a service to an organisation through projects or continuous improvement. Each BA has key attributes that make them unique that can be leveraged to work on the pieces of work most appropriate. Georgiana is the ‘Playful BA’ making her particularly good at stakeholder engagement. What kind of BA are you?

The BA Team is often misunderstood or even not know in an organisation. A project may have a BA resource but the team is underutilised. What if the organisation was across all the service offerings of the team and sourced a BA at the right time for the right purpose? The value of branding the BA Team is being visible and elevated in the organisation so they are the first port of call for project initiation and improvements. By branding the team, it aligns BAs in the core values.

Branding a project gives stakeholders something to hold on to as they navigate the project lifecycle. A name, a colour scheme, values, they all capture attention and provide the opportunity to send consistent messaging.
