Business Analysis Definition and Initiation

What is Business Analysis?

According to the International Institute of Business Analysis (IIBA), a business analyst serves as an agent of change within an organization. Business analysis is a structured approach to implementing and managing change, enabling organizations to adapt and thrive. Business analysts play a crucial role in identifying and defining solutions that enhance the value delivered to stakeholders, ensuring the organization’s objectives are met efficiently and effectively.
