Top 7 Soft Skills for Business Analysts

Business Analysis Live!

In IIBA's most recent Global State of Business Analysis survey, the business analysis community told us that there are 7 soft skills critical to the work of BA professionals. Some say "soft skills," well, we say "essential skills!" These skills not only make your work stand out as a business analyst but also differentiate you in the marketplace. In this episode Scott and Susan identify those 7 skills and dive into what that means. As always, they take audience questions live!
