Business Analyst, Product Owner, Product Manager, Spy!
In many cases Business Analysts are working undercover as Product Owners and Product Managers. Not that there is any shortage of pretenders to the crown: Customers, Sales, Developers, any-old Manager and others all want to usurp the incumbent requirements guardian - be they Business Analyst, Product Managers, Product Owner, System Analyst, Analyst/Programmer...in fact, that is half the problem, whose job is requirements anyway?
In this talk, Allan Kelly will attempt to disentangle these roles and explain where companies are making mistakes in their approach to the requirements role; why Business Analysts need to change, what exactly a Product Manager is and what UK start-ups can learn from Silicon Valley about requirements.
