Event Details
Business Analysts are effective members of agile teams but their roles are changing. More and more, practitioners need to be prepared to rethink the way they approach their jobs. This may include becoming comfortable with ambiguity, redefining success measures as well as a greater focus on collaboration, knowledge sharing, and skills transfer. Agile teams require people with greater flexibility, and the willingness to work in an evolutionary manner.
During this noon hour event, Chris will present on how integrating the Agile methodology has changed the day-to-day functions and responsibilities of Farm Credit Canada's (FCC) Business Analysts, and how new opportunities have opened up for the people who have best embraced the change.
