Why Read This Report

With the advent of Agile development, business analysts (BAs) have to prove their worth in a developer-centric environment where their role may be seen as nonessential. BAs need to navigate the waters between waterfall, Agile, and popular mixes of hybrid methodologies to stay effective and valuable and to avoid becoming mere order-takers. This report outlines how the disruption of Agile and hybrid methodologies can be used to BAs' advantage and discusses the skill sets and tactics that BAs can utilize to survive this rapidly changing world. Keywords: waterfall, requirements, degree of uncertainty, testing, business analyst
