PANEL DISCUSSION: Where Should the BA sit in the Organization?
• Some people would suggest that there are hundreds, if not thousands
of variations on the PMO theme and so many different approaches.
Some organizations thought they had it figured and then along came
•
the officially recognized BA. So where do they belong? If we put
them in the PMO, what are the issues? If we let them run free who or
what do they report to?
