IIBA 2020 September - Why are there no Business Analysts in start upsAustraliaChapterIIBA
Technology start-up teams typically look like – Founder, Designer, Developer, Marketer. Rarely do they mention a Business Analyst! Pragmatic business analysis speeds up the start-up journey, ultimately saving significant time and money for founders bootstrapping their businesses.
Walking through a case study, we’ll explore the custom application development process successfully used for early-stage start-ups in the dental and financial planning industries.
Presentation Value/Learning Points:
In this session you will discover:
• How a start-up mindset can improve how you plan, capture and validate requirements
• Requirements gathering approaches best suited for custom application development
• How the Wizard of Oz can help you identify a minimum viable product
• Techniques for working with stakeholders new to custom application development
Erin Clark - Managing Director
Erin is an internationally recognised innovation expert, delivering training and consulting across the Asia Pacific. She works with corporates to innovate like start-ups and start-ups to scale-up.
Erin has led a business analysis consulting practice, managed large teams of business analysts and spends a lot of time flicking through the BABOK – but has never held the job title of ‘Business Analyst’.
Erin started her career in the journalism industry. To prove that an Arts Degree can take you a lot further than working at the local McDonalds, Erin has since worked in Indonesia, Malaysia, Hong Kong, Singapore and New Zealand. After a crisis of confidence in her IT and business skills, she also graduated with a Graduate Certificate in IT Project Management from UTS and a Master of Business Administration from UWA.
Erin now takes great pride in the ability to translate between humans and nerds to drive better outcomes, often using interpretative dance.

Are you a Talent Acquisition Innovator? Let's Change the Game, Together.Marie Burns
You're here because you're already a leader in human capital development and have a roadmap to where you're headed for the rest of 2015. Let's go ahead take it to another level. We all FEEL the pain: talent acquisition continues to rapidly evolve and transform in response to in-flux business demands, talent shortages, technology enhancements, generational shifts –you get the point –all while rarely being respected as a "make-it-or-break-it" department. Do these points hit home for anyone? If your answer is no, I'd welcome you to co-host this session with me (@marieburns).
Join in for a fresh, interactive session that will remind and show you the path to enhance innovation within your talent organization. We'll discuss how to change the game, stay ahead of the curve with fresh trends and set yourself up for success by re-engaging the entrepreneur inside yourself. By learning new ways to tap into your outside-the-box self, you will be able to create the "innovative momentum" to drive change, or at least move the dial forward with:
-An easy to apply methodology and examples for finding entrepreneurial white space within your organization
-Brand new talent acquisitions strategies for your current and future workforces
-Understanding how new talent acquisition strategies will be impacted by technology and economic factors (ah,the future)
-Steps to become a talent innovation hub despite the increased difficulty of talent attraction.
It's time to move the needle away from the decaying "tried and true" approaches to ensure that our profession is set up to empower our organizations and people for a successful future.
