No BA is an Island
Although BAs commonly offer a specific service within a project we work as part of a team. This isn’t new; we’ve always worked better as part of a team.
But times have changed and the demand for different skills within development are so immense now that all team members must be capable of working across other disciplines to ensure successful project delivery.
What does this mean for the Business Analysts and how they work now and into the future?
Consider the modern development team like a football team. Each individual still has their own role, a striker, defender etc but sometimes, at crucial points in the game, even the goalkeeper will be called up to have a shot at goal.
