As Business Analysts we need to influence the technological choices to enable the opportunities and unite all the parties Delivering the service Target: making the experience unique for our customers Reality: training focuses on teaching processes and software navigation Building on past investments Target: have a live business process execution environment Reality: external repository disconnected from delivery Create a Process Driven Environment instead of a Data Driven Environment Enable innovation Target: incorporate innovation as a BAU item Reality: too hard and too expensive to test resulting in demotivation and negative culture against change Transparency Target: intimate understanding on how the machine works to become efficient and effective Reality: too much effort to provide ad hoc analysis Focus Target: link the organisation to the promise we made to our shareholders Reality: lack of transparency on how people can contribute to the success of the organisation Page 17
