End-to-End Business Analysis - Deliver Change that Matters

Most projects don’t fail. They leak value.

Value leaks when requirements disconnect from strategy, scope expands without clarity, and benefits are assumed but never traced.

This 4-hour strategic intensive is designed for practicing business analysts, project professionals, delivery leads, and business owners who want to turn initiatives into measurable outcomes.

Led by Maria Montgomery — lecturer, author of The Art of Getting Business Analysis Right, and Chair of IIBA Melbourne — this interactive session introduces a practical End-to-End Business Analysis approach that connects:

Strategy → Initiative → Requirements → Delivery → Benefits → Sustainability

What you will learn:

• Identify where value is lost across projects
• Uncover real stakeholder needs beyond surface requests
• Strengthen requirement clarity and traceability
• Manage scope professionally and confidently
• Bridge communication between business and technical teams
• Connect delivery outputs to measurable outcomes.
