The most frustrating aspect of providing business analysis and consulting services is when you do not or cannot deliver what you promised to the client; when you don't reach what you set out to achieve, regardless of the amount of effort you put in.

No more...

We show you exactly why most projects fail and how you can dramatically increase your success rate and client satisfaction by getting your solutions implemented successfully.

The key is to evolve to "Consultative BA" level skills.

According to a Standish Group study, over 70% of BA projects fail. Almost all were what we call “complex projects” involving multiple processes, systems, and people. The main reason is the use of the one-size-fits-all, traditional BA approach that you have probably been taught.

Any project that crosses over from technology into management systems and the jobs people perform, is a complex project.

• First we look at the major mistakes business analysts make in dealing with complex projects. For example focusing on technology rather than objectives; or eliciting requirements instead of determining needs.

• We then show you the differences in thinking, focus and positioning required to start and manage complex projects successfully through consultative business analysis.

• Then we introduce you to a proven consulting approach that will literally change your life. You'll learn exactly how to turn the tables in your favor with step-by-step methods.

"Solutions that stick" are effective systems and procedures (including technology) that you initiate that remain in place long after you leave and achieve the aims established with and by the client.

Permanence of solutions is the true measure of project success and you will learn exactly how to achieve that.
