Barbara Carkenord has really gotten it right! This book takes you through what is needed to analyze a business completely and correctly, which will feed into the best solutions for that business. ‘Seven Steps’ is well laid out, understandable, and hits all the right notes. I would recommend this book not only to new business analysts, but also to seasoned analysts looking to hone their skills.

Being new to the business analysis industry, I found this book extremely helpful. It was informative and well-written, breaking down some of the more complicated aspects of business analysis into concepts that were easy for me to understand. Even though I used it mostly as a primer, I will keep this book around as a reference tool for the future as well because it was full of tips and techniques that I can use down the line. It was obvious that the author is very experienced and truly knew what she was talking about. I’m confident that the knowledge I gained from this book was concrete, especially how she showed the way things connected to the the BABOK. I’m glad I picked up this book because it seemed to be the only comprehensive one out there that was on business analysis as a whole, rather than specific parts like requirements or elicitation.
