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, build our understanding of business architecture and service design and be bold with the BA toolkit.

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 is Strategy Lead at Airelogic Limited.
