PREFACE

This is an exciting time for business analysis. There are now practising business analysts working at all levels of seniority in most organisations and the role is recognised increasingly by professionals from other disciplines, both within the IT function and the business units. The sixth BA Conference Europe is scheduled, with increasing numbers attending year on year. There are numerous publications on business analysis, and social media abounds with (mostly relevant!) BA blogs, videos and debates. Many business analysts hold certifications; at the time of writing, BCS had issued over 75,000 certificates. Business analysis is taught in universities. Need we go on? It definitely feels like we have arrived!
