🌟 Closing the 3 Gaps: Business Architecture in Action 🌟 Join Sreedev Chembakasseril, Senior Business Architect at Phoenix Group, as he presents Closing the 3 Gaps: Business Architecture in Action at the Business Analysis Conference 2024! Session Details: Ever wondered why your meticulously planned strategy isn’t delivering the expected results? Why, despite clear directives, people aren’t acting as planned? Or why intended actions aren't achieving desired outcomes? These common challenges often arise during significant strategic transformations. Drawing from Stephen Bungay’s insights in The Art of Action, Sreedev will explore three critical gaps: Knowledge Gap: The difference between what we would like to know and what we know. Alignment Gap: The delta between what we want people to do and what they do. Effects Gap: The mismatch between expected and actual results. In this talk, Sreedev will: Illustrate real-life case studies from his organisation around each of these gaps. Demonstrate how business architecture is crucial in bridging these gaps. Provide insights into the pivotal role of business architects and their connection to business analysis. Key Takeaways: An enhanced understanding of business architecture in a FTSE 100 company.

Hello there! 👋 Time does not stop and gets us closer to the 16th Business Analysis Conference Europe by IRM UK. With that, it is time for us to start talking about the people that will shape this beautiful event. Now, IRM UK does a great job and highlights all the speakers and their topics on their page; check it by yourself! At the same time, I would like to spotlight some of the speakers myself. These are the people I have met/heard personally before, and I would like to endorse them. Others are genuinely powerful in their own way, and I believe you should learn from them. 😎 One of those people is Pip Hall from Telent Technology Services Ltd 😍 . I met Pip last year at the same conference and instantly fell in love with her professionally. I am not sure, whether it was her winning an award for Business Analyst of the Year, her charm, or an interview we had afterward, but I felt instantly that Pip had a lot to share. You can check some of the materials featuring Pip in comments to this post to get your understanding of her expertise - 100% worth the time. 🤝 This year we are in for a treat from Pip Hall, and it is a triple feature! Not only is Pip part of the advisory board, meticulously prepping the speakers (including me, and believe me - it is amazing), but also we should expect not one, but two cases of Pip speaking! 🙌 The first is an amazing workshop with James Compton and Imtiaz Kaderbhoy IIBA®, AAC®, CPOA® named "Bridging Theory and Practice: A Collaborative Workshop for Business Analysts". This time, participants would be able to analyze stakeholders, requirements, and potential solutions, discuss a range of tools and techniques, and collaborate with peers to share experiences and opinions. You can find more details here, search on the page for the workshop name on the Day 1 tab - https://lnkd.in/dM7hQkpN The second time Pip Hall will share during the conference will be on Day 2, with the topic of "Applying Kipling's Six Honest Men in Business Analysis". According to the promising description, each business analyst will be able to get tangible insight into stakeholder needs, learn how to build trust through understanding, and find out how to drive creativity in problem-solving. I do not know what you think, but this sounds bloody tasty! 😀 As you see, there is a lot Pip Hall can suggest as a part of sharing her expertise. If you are not convinced yet that you need to be a part of it - I do not know what to add, everything speaks for itself. But if you are - stop hesitating and jump in to register right now! ⬇ https://lnkd.in/ejnzctsf I am looking forward to meeting you during one of the cornerstone business analysis events on this small round planet. Let's have fun together, network, share ideas and knowledge, and get together with the business analysis community! Cheers! ✌ #ba24 #ba #conference #businessanalyst #businessanalysis

Conference 🗓️Here’s a date for your diary and one we consider pretty important for those looking to the future. DATA, AI & ANALYTICS INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE 2024  London 14th - 17th October Hosted by IRM UK in partnership with DAMA UK, this promises to be the foremost gathering of Europe’s leading minds in Data, Artificial Intelligence and Analytics. But why should your organisation have representation there? No one would doubt that AI is poised to become increasingly critical in the realm of data and analytics. Its unparalleled ability to process vast amounts of information with speed and precision renders more traditional methods of analysis somewhat limited by comparison and insufficient to extract meaningful insights efficiently. As data grows exponentially, AI algorithms will increasingly excel in identifying patterns, trends, and anomalies within large datasets, providing better and better business or organisational intelligence. Additionally, AI can automate repetitive and complex analytical tasks, enhancing predictive analytics and improving forecasting accuracy - all providing deeper insights and making AI a truly indispensable tool in the data-driven future. However, we know only too well that staying with, let alone ahead of, the AI curve can be challenging hence the importance of the conference! Embracing a vast amount of topics and trends, our conference is committed to driving forward the realms of data governance, cutting-edge AI trends, and strategic leadership in the digital age. Join us as we delve into transformative insights and actionable solutions tailored to empower Data & AI professionals. Immerse yourself in visionary keynotes, dynamic panel discussions, and interactive sessions led by trailblazing figures in the industry. Join us 14 – 17 October 2024 and experience: ▶️Diverse Learning Tracks: Choose from an unparalleled selection of dynamic tracks, each meticulously curated to cater to both novices and experts. ▶️Boundless Networking: Forge meaningful connections during the networking breaks. ▶️Real-World Applications: Learn not just the theory but also the practical applications of Data & AI. Hear first-hand accounts of how leading organisations are revolutionising their strategies. Why are we telling you about this now when the conference isn’t until October? Well it’s because the EARLY BIRD DISCOUNT ends JULY 22ND. For further information and tickets take a look here: https://lnkd.in/eKc99SXG #data #dataai #datastrategies #businessvalue #dataquality

🌟 Character Crafting: How Behaviours Can Be Caught, Taught, and Sought 🌟 Join us at the Business Analysis Conference 2024 for an enlightening session with Helen Holder, Senior Business Analyst at the Ministry of Justice UK, on Character Crafting: How Behaviours Can Be Caught, Taught, and Sought. Session Details: In a world where the pace of change is ever-increasing, new technologies are constantly emerging, and communication methods are evolving, there's never been a better time to adopt practical approaches to building and maintaining the behaviours at the heart of the BA profession. Despite being an experienced BA, the pandemic impacted my confidence, challenging my ability to question assumptions and build relationships effectively. This led to the realization that the personal qualities essential to my role are not just innate but need continuous development. Thus began my journey into character education, creating a personal strengths inventory and a character passport to guide my growth. This session encourages a growth mindset regarding behaviours, exploring how we can develop positive character traits through learning and practice. Key Takeaways: Behavioural Review: Understanding the behaviours within the BA competency set and how character crafting can enhance our roles. VIA Character Strengths: Introduction to the 24 VIA Character Strengths and how to use them for a personal strengths inventory and ‘Character Passport’. Interactive Exercise: Attendees will create their own inventory and kickstart their character journey with practical advice on creating and tracking character development opportunities. Don’t miss this chance to embark on your own character development journey and discover how to enhance your BA role through behavioural growth!
