BA Open Mic Night

Presented by Adrian Reed, Blackmetric Business Solutions

 Join us for the Business Analysis Open Mic Night — an immersive, informal and interactive chance to discuss all things BA related (and many other things besides!).

This is not your usual webinar. In this session, webcams and microphones will be switched on, and you’ll have the opportunity to ‘grab the mic’ and speak for up to 3 minutes on a topic of your choice. Each 3-minute slot will be followed by a chance for anyone present to discuss and debate the topic in more detail. So if you have a hot topic you’d like to discuss, why not join us?

This session will be facilitated (or should that be ‘compered’) by Adrian Reed.

Feel free to attend to listen, to participate or to speak — the choice is yours. You don’t need to be a BA to attend–absolutely anyone with an interest in business analysis, change or any related discipline is welcome.

Since this is an interactive and informal ‘live’ event it won’t be recorded. Miss it, miss out
