The 20 Minute Business Analyst: a collection of short articles, humorous stories, and quick reference cards for the busy analyst

Who has time to read text books? As a busy business analysis consultant and instructor, my free time is short and precious. That is why I like to read articles. They are brief and to the point. I like quick reference cards for a similar reason – they offer immediate help. I also like humor in the context of the subject. Laughter keeps me interested and awake. If you’re busy like me, this book is for you. It is a collection of short business analysis articles, humorous but pertinent stories and quick reference cards.

• If you are a business analyst practitioner, these articles will confirm best practices or provide you additional insight as to why they are best practices; no matter how good you are at eliciting and documenting requirements, you can always improve.

• If you are a professor at an institution of higher learning, these articles can serve as a source for discussion at both the graduate and undergraduate level.
