Great resource, wish it had a hardcover
4 Stars
Great resource, wish it had a hardcover
This book will be valuable for my job, and I look forward to diving in to it! I do wish it came in a hardcover for more durability though, because it's a big book and a hardcover will last longer. The only reason I gave 4 stars and not 5 is because it was damaged, which is most likely the shipping carriers fault not the vendor. The back cover and about 6 pages were scrunched, and the spine has a tear. Not a huge deal and I can live with it, but a hardcover would have withstood shipping better.

5.0 out of 5 stars Essential reading for BAs
Reviewed in the United States on April 3, 2021
Verified Purchase
This isn't the most riveting thing to read, obviously, since it's basically a text book. However, it is essential reading if you're a BA. If you're just starting out in the field or intending on getting your CBAP or other IIBA certification, then you should read it start to finish to give yourself a foundation of knowledge / study for the exam. Otherwise, I still find it handy to have on hand as a reference guide. Need to refresh your knowledge of a certain technique that maybe you don't use often? Then read the section on just that technique. Need some guidance on setting up your requirements plan? Refer to just that section of the BABOK. Definitely recommended for all BAs.

Reviewed in the United States on May 26, 2015

Business Analysis, as promoted by the IIBA, is becoming the most significant role in systems development and business process engineering. The techniques presented in the new BABOK, including the agile modules, brings the experiences of senior BAs to all ranges of BAs. to have a disciplined course guiding them to successfully proving that requirements are the greatest investment a company can make when doing any project, large-scale or small. This BABOK brings together the latest in roles, techniques, planning, and experiences, that we all can lean on.
Thanks, IIBA!

A good improvement over earlier versions of the BABOK. Moves more toward business instead of IT centric. Also introduces multiple perspectives that business analysis can be practiced in. An excellent guide for business analysis professionals.

3.0 out of 5 stars A Comprehensive Resource for Business Analysts: A Guide to the Business Analysis Body of Knowledge
Reviewed in the United States on July 14, 2023
Verified Purchase
One of the standout features of the BABOK Guide is its comprehensive coverage of the business analysis discipline. It provides a systematic framework that encompasses all the knowledge areas, tasks, and techniques required for successful business analysis. The book is well-organized and easy to navigate, making it a valuable reference tool for both seasoned professionals and those new to the field.

The highlighter pen marks and notes, although left by the previous owner, turned out to be beneficial rather than distracting. The highlighted sections draw attention to important concepts, key definitions, and noteworthy examples, making it easier to quickly grasp the essential information. The notes provide additional insights and practical tips, further enhancing the learning experience. The fact that the previous owner found these sections worth highlighting and noting speaks to the relevance and usefulness of the content.

Despite being a used book, the pages are intact and the binding is sturdy, ensuring that the book will withstand frequent use. The overall condition of the book allows for easy reading and referencing, with no major issues or damages. It is evident that the previous owner took good care of the book, ensuring its longevity and usability.
