Joseph Lukas will present: "Pardon Me - Your Personality is Showing!"

Knowledge of business analysis technical skills is not sufficient to avoid project failure. Business Analysts (BA's) need well-developed soft skills including leadership, conflict resolutions and communications. The successful Business Analyst also recognizes the styles of other project stakeholders.

Session Learning Objectives: When the session is completed, the attendee will be able to:

Describe the strengths, weaknesses and reaction to stress for the four basic personality styles.
Explain how to identify the four basic personality styles.
Describe how to flex each style to effectively communicate with other people.
