2026-09-24 19:00:00Z	Sep 24, 2026		From Analysis to Action: The Power of Storytelling			Sep 24, 2026 7:00 PM - 8:00 PM	Chapter Meeting Free Professional Development Webinars		Join us on Thursday, September 24, 2026, from 7:00 PM – 8:00 PM Eastern Time for an engaging BA Masterclass with Marcus Udokang, MBA, Business Analyst Consultant, Author, Speaker, and host of The Inquisitive Analyst Podcast. Business Analysts often uncover valuable insights, but insights alone do not create change. The ability to communicate findings in a way that influences stakeholders, drives decisions, and inspires action is what separates good analysts from great ones. In this practical session, Marcus will explore how storytelling can become one of the most powerful tools in a Business Analyst's toolkit. Participants will learn simple frameworks for structuring messages, presenting recommendations, and creating narratives that help stakeholders understand problems, align around solutions, and move confidently toward action.

Participants will examine how Business Analysts influence not only systems and processes, but also the narratives, incentives, and realities that shape organizational behavior.

2026-10-15 18:00:00Z	Oct 15, 2026		The Work Is Not the Artifact Who Matters, How Much, and Why? Session 1			Oct 15, 2026 6:00 PM - 7:30 PM	Chapter Meeting Paid Webinars	Virtual	Most Business Analysts learn to build a stakeholder register. Fewer learn how the register is intended to be used — or the value it can bring throughout the initiative. We’re not building your traditional stakeholder register. The AI³ stakeholder decision support model introduces questions that rarely make it into the usual templates — and unlike the traditional register, which is largely a BA research exercise, what we’ll be doing here is an elicitation process. We’ll start with what the project brief gives us, then practice the decisions that only emerge through conversation: what does this stakeholder actually care about, how much influence do they really have, and what do I need to find out next?

2026-10-29 18:00:00Z	Oct 29, 2026		The Work Is Not the Artifact Who Matters, How Much, and Why? Session 2			Oct 29, 2026 6:00 PM - 7:30 PM	Chapter Meeting Paid Webinars	Virtual	Put multiple stakeholders in the same room at the same time to define a problem and you get mush — a lowest-common-denominator statement that everyone can live with and nobody actually owns. Writing a problem statement is easy when you only have one stakeholder. Getting multiple stakeholders to actually agree on what the problem is — that’s the work. The conversations have to happen one stakeholder at a time, and the BA’s job is to keep track of what each stakeholder said — and didn’t say — long enough to synthesize something real that they can all grab on to and own.
