HOW I WORK / THE METHOD
My approach connects stakeholder understanding, analysis, product decisions and delivery validation. The stages adapt to the project; the need for evidence and clear decisions does not.
THE BA LIFECYCLE
Explore each stage to see its purpose, common activities, the output I look for and related portfolio work.
HOW I THINK
Clarity before commitment.Define the problem, expose assumptions, make trade-offs visible and check the outcome after release.
