Abstract
As a business analyst, you are usually not in a formal leadership role. Yet, you have the knowledge to lead stakeholders to make better choices. Are you leading consciously, and to the best of your abilities? What is your leadership challenge? What tips can grow your leadership skills? Let's discuss! (Oh, we'll talk about pizza too…)
Learnings:
- As a BA professional, leading is inherently part of what you do, and is expected and appreciated by your stakeholders.
- Consciously choose where and when (not) to lead.
- You can start to lead consciously in different ways and places.
