One Project, Two Lenses: Bridging PM and BA Perspectives
About this Event
Every successful initiative relies on navigating uncertainty, yet Project Managers and Business Analysts often view that challenge through distinct lenses. While Business Analysis focuses on reducing uncertainty around whether we are solving the right problem, Project Management focuses on reducing uncertainty around whether we can successfully deliver the solution.
Join the PMI Adelaide Chapter and IIBA Adelaide Chapter for an engaging collaborative panel session exploring how these two vital disciplines work together—not as competing approaches, but as complementary capabilities that progressively build confidence in project outcomes.
Rather than diving into rigid methodologies, this session steps back to look at the purpose behind our practices. Our panel of expert PM and BA professionals will discuss how governance, stakeholder engagement, planning, analysis, and execution collectively reduce project risk and drive real business value.
Key Discussion Areas & Synergies
During this interactive panel session, we will explore the critical intersections where PMs and BAs create the highest impact together:
Navigating Uncertainty: How early analysis and agile delivery management continuously align solution intent with delivery reality.
Shared Stakeholder Engagement: Uniting PM project alignment with BA requirements gathering to create a seamless, unified experience for stakeholders and sponsors.
Balanced Governance & Risk: How risk management (PM) and traceably defined business rules (BA) form a resilient framework against scope creep and unexpected change.
Shared Ownership of Value: Moving beyond "on-time and on-budget" toward measuring true product performance, organizational adoption, and strategic outcomes.
