Thursday May 23, 2024
Thursday May 23, 2024
My recording from the IIBA Philadelphia May Chapter Meeting: taken from my co-Authored The Change Book presentation titled Big Dreams Made From Smaller Pieces, Turning No's into Yes's to Help along our Career Journey
Greg brings stories about bringing people to work together, certification journeys, saying Yes to Yourself, assembling the F/A-18E/F Low Rate Initial Production Specification one engineer at a time that can be used along our career journey's as Business Analysts. Greg's solution is about Breaking “No’s” into Smaller “Yes’s” with three self-applied concepts: Turning No’s into smaller easy Yes’s, Saying Yes to Our Own Growth and Transforming Our Own Mindset with small Yes’s to achieve bigger goals. Turning No’s into small Yes’s will open doors for years to come.
