Titled “Business Analysis Across Africa – Lessons Learned Running Requirements Workshops in 8 African Countries,” Paul’s talk will focus on the lessons Sybrin has learned implementing systems across Africa.
Paul is a Business Analysis Manager at Sybrin and leads a team of four seasoned Business Analysts. He has 14 years’ IT experience as a Startup Entrepreneur turned Fintech Business Analyst. Focusing on Payment Solutions, his expertise covers Cheque, EFT, RTGS, SWIFT, and Mobile Payments. Paul has designed, improved, and supported systems in Nigeria, Rwanda, Malawi, Zambia, Kenya, Tanzania, Lesotho, and South Africa. This extensive experience positions him perfectly to highlight the effects that culture, legislature, and language have on the art of business analysis.
Exploring these questions and more, attendees will gain insight into how to run a successful Requirements Workshop. Often overlooked, this is a crucial step towards executing an on-time and on budget project. Being able to ensure that a true “meeting of the minds” has taken place between stakeholders is a crucial skill for every Business Analyst, but one that many practitioners are still learning. Presented by an engaging and charismatic speaker, Paul’s presentation will interest people of all skill levels.
