BA Brew - A Business Analysis Podcast17 Marras 2023

The Strategy and Architecture Rant (Feat. Vicky Rothwell)

Editor Tom found this BA Brew ‘mind-blowing’ and we think you will too. If you have ever felt ‘put in your box’ as a BA, you need to hear what Enterprise Architect and Strategy Delivery Consultant Vicky Rothwell has to say.

Vicky challenges business analysts to push for a strategic role, to be bold with our BA toolkits and to build our understanding of business architecture and service design.

Topics covered in this BA Brew include:

The overlap between the business architecture and business analysis toolkits.
The rise of the strategic business analyst.
Business architecture as an opportunity for BAs.
Self-limiting beliefs and how to resist being put in the ‘BA Box’.
Why business analysts, business architects and service designers are a powerful alliance.
The capability lens and the value proposition.
Responding to business events.
Microservices and macroservices.

Vicky Rothwell works as Strategy Lead at Airelogic Limited.
