Business Analysts are now emerging from requirement writers for IT projects to serving as a pivotal link in business change and transformation. However, to be successful, business analysts have to have the right set of skills and competencies.

The skills must not only include business and IT domain knowledge, but experience and competency on how to apply various business analysis techniques such as value stream mapping, performance measurement, user centered design, and other techniques to determine solutions for complex business problems.

Many organizations have struggled finding and developing business analysis skills. A Business Analysis Center of Excellence (BACoE) provides an effective method for organizations to increase business analysis maturity and consequently deliver more business value and reduce the risk of projects.

In this webinar, you will learn:

• How to create a Business Analysis Center of Excellence
• The role of a Business Analyst
• How to help increase business analysis skills and improve business performance
• How to identify the cause of problems and finding creative solutions
• Defining KPIs to measure performance

Plus: Attendees will receive a kit of value materials including a Business Analysis Capability Maturity Model.

Establishing a PMO (Project/Program/Portfolio Management Office) is considered to be a best practice approach to improving the value an organization can receive from its project investments.

Why is it then, that a study, conducted in 2005, of 750 organizations worldwide indicated that over 75% of organizations that set up a PMO shut it down within three years because it did not demonstrate any added value?

Solution Q invites you to attend a webinar where you will learn key reasons why so many PMOs fail, and gain some valuable knowledge of the critical success factors required to ensure the survival of your PMO.

Who should attend this webinar?
Managers/Directors of PMOs, Project Managers
