After publishing this video I found that 38% of BAs feel that their biggest challenge is "Imposter Syndrome" - interesting. Do other feel that too?
My life's story.
Thank you for sharing.
I am an aspiring BA currently in a graduate program and I relate to the challenges of self doubt and complex subject matter. I am fresh out of university and so I doubt myself a lot when I am doing my work which negatively impacts my self confidence and how I carry myself, my productivity and how others perceive me. The team I am in is a very techincal team in finance with senior developers/analysts and so the work I am currently doing also involves dealing with SMEs that are much more experienced who know more about the work I am doing than myself which makes me feel like I am not qualified to be in the same room as everyone else.
I am currently studying towards the ECBA certification exam and get familiar with BA techniques/tools/best practices which I hope will make me feel more confident in myself and apply a different mindset when dealing with SMEs where instead of being overwhelmed with everything I don't know, I still try to learn and fill in the gaps.
You should hang in the there and remind yourself that all good BAs goes through this stage of self-doubt during their careers, especially at the start. Keep learning what Business Analysis is and you will over time learn how to add your own value in those rooms full of SMEs. You definitely also belong there, and try to compare yourself only with yourself and not with others who may have years of experience. Good luck and keep learning, you will find your place as a BA in time.
