It's all to easy to drag an email to your calender, add a subject, invitees, and location/conference info, and click send in a "discuss the attached" fashion v. taking the time to ensure you and, more importantly, your attendees know the desired outcome of your meeting!

In my organization the BAs seem to be left out.. The bottle necks of the projects so to speak. I want to change that, I want to have a BACoE and have it Recognized. I know this isn't going to be easy but with a lot of time, effort and much needed training, I know we need this and we can accomplish it. It is funny I stumbled over your blog. I was beginning to think I need to change careers but now I'm on a mission to expanding the one I have. Thanks! Laurie You’re blog couldn’t be more welcoming!
