The topic of the first-ever meetup: “BA+PM+DEV team: how to build the synergy”.

Sometimes roles in the development teams are mixed. Developers perform the Project Manager’s job or Project Managers complete not only PM’s tasks but also Business Analyst responsibilities. Such situations affect overall project success. To make the development process and communication with the customer more efficient, we need clearly distributed roles of the PM, BA, and Dev team in the project.

During the meetup we will talk about:

• How a Business Analyst can make the development process easier
• Why and how the PM’s and BA’s roles should be distributed
• PM tools and best practices for efficient communication with BA and the team
• How to show the BA’s role value to the client and integrate the first BA into the project

The story will be based on real speakers’ cases and show the pitfalls and best practices of building team synergy from scratch.

The topic will be compelling for Project Managers, Business Analysts, Product Owners, and Tech Leads/ Team Leads who want to make the development process more efficient.
