Events

Join us for a delightfully themed evening as the Bluegrass, Southeast Michigan and Chicagoland IIBA Chapters come together to celebrate what makes both life and agile work special. This month, we're stacking three celebrations into one unmissable event — because why sprint through one theme when you can triple-track it? Business analysts are impact-makers by trade — we untangle the messy middle, connect the dots nobody else sees, and turn "it depends" into "here's the path forward." This month, we're celebrating exactly that with 'Be the Impact Day', honoring the everyday ways BAs drive meaningful change — one requirement, one root cause, one well-facilitated meeting at a time. And because great impact deserves great fuel and a little fun, we're pairing it with 'National Sandwich Day' (and every good sprint deserves a good spread). And to round it out, we're embracing 'Cliché Day' — the one day a year we can say "let's circle back" without any guilt whatsoever. All for a night that's equal parts inspiring and ridiculous. This promises to be a fun and interactive event, one You Won't Want to Miss! Hosted by Bluegrass, Southeast Michigan and Chicagoland IIBA Chapters

Business Analysts use a variety of tools every day. Sometimes, we don't even realize we are using a tool or technique because it comes so naturally. In fact, you might be using outdated tools because you didn't realize there was a better way. Or because you didn't have the time to investigate. In this session, you will learn and practice updated BA tools and techniques that will help you "build" the right solution for your stakeholders (and not limit yourself to the solution they requested).
