We’re all probably a little hung over from the ardous task of coming up with gift ideas. But how about the idea gift? There’s no more precious gift than a great idea, and I get lots all year long from students, friends, colleagues, even family. Below is an article about an idea that a colleague gave to me and that others found helpful when I ran it a year ago. So in the spirit of continued giving post-holiday, here is my idea gift re-gifted for you. And thank you to all the great gift givers in my life! All the best in 2012!

I run across people with a variety of motivations for getting their credential. Some people get certified for recognition, others want it for the personal satisfaction or increased stature it brings. And, we all would not mind if the CBAP lead to extra income, and the IIBA has released a study showing that CBAPs earn higher salaries.
In a conversation with a CBAP candidate last week I found out AXA Equitable Insurance recognizes the CBAP as an element in deciding on promotions. She said “For me, it is a critical factor to being promoted in my company. It is a critical step needed for me to move from Senior to Lead BA in a mature BA practicing company.”
