Upskill Your Needs Analysis to Dramatically Impact Business Outcomes

Have you ever decided on a course of action, only to realize you were solving for the wrong problem? Preconceived notions, limiting beliefs, and assumptions create barriers to critical thinking. Blind spots become obstacles, getting in the way of alignment and achieving business outcomes. It is critical that we, as leaders, improve our needs analysis capabilities to solve real business problems.

In this session you will demonstrate how asking the right questions through a defined needs analysis framework, driven by a repeatable process, creates clarity of need and a focus on outcomes. What, Who, Why, How, When—these questions, combined with project management rigor and thinking, will help you speed up your needs analysis process, minimize blind spots, and refresh your focus.

You will walk away with a repeatable needs analysis process that you can apply in your business immediately.

In this session you will learn how to:

• Identify whether the problem is really something that needs to be solved—before you invest resources
• Implement the needs analysis framework
• Determine how to avoid blind spots and improve your business perspective
• Leave refreshed and ready to solve business problems through better needs analysis
