Real Value, Risks, and Case Studies
AI can accelerate BA work, but only if we know how to ask for the right outputs, validate results, and manage risk. This virtual, hands-on workshop is designed for business analysts who want a practical, repeatable approach to prompt engineering.
We will cover:
- A simple framework for writing prompts that produce structured, usable BA deliverables
- How to use AI for common BA scenarios (elicitation support, meeting summaries, requirements, user stories, models)
- How to reduce hallucinations and improve accuracy through constraints, context, and verification steps
- The real-world trade-offs: cost-benefit, implementation and maintenance considerations, governance and risk.
- A reflection on how AI changes elicitation techniques and what it may mean for BABOK-style practices
Attendees will leave with framework(s) they can reuse immediately to apply in their day-to-day BA work.
Learning Objectives
By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to:
- Apply a practical prompt framework to generate BA-ready outputs (structured, scoped, and testable).
- Write prompts for common BA tasks (elicitation support, meeting summaries, requirements, user stories, acceptance criteria).
- Use constraints and context techniques to reduce AI errors and improve consistency and quality.
- Validate AI outputs using lightweight verification methods suitable for BA workflows.
- Identify risks and governance considerations (bias, hallucinations, etc.).
- Evaluate AI opportunities using cost–benefit thinking (time saved, quality impact, controls, and operational overhead).
