2008 promises to be a great year for business analysis! We have finally hit our stride - lots of people in our companies are beginning to understand what we do and the value that we bring to the organization. The IIBA has certified over 200 CBAPs in it's first year and is working to make the exam more accessible for everyone.
And there are suddenly many training, consulting, and software companies who now actively advertise their business analysis products. They have all recognized what we have known for years - business analysts are smart, focused, creative, and enthusiastic about helping their business run smoother and be more successful. Maybe we should declare 2008 The Year of the BA!!
