Interviewing Stakeholders: How to Get the Most (and Best) Requirements
Hands-on
Interviewing is a key technique to elicit requirements from stakeholders, yet how do we do it? Especially when the number one reason IT projects fail is because of poor requirements. The more our stakeholders can trust in our skills, the more information they will contribute. What kinds of questions do we ask and when, and for which stakeholder and scenario? Are there some question types that are better used with individuals than with groups? At the same time, how do we document responses accurately and efficiently? Join us to learn the answers from Pamela Paterson, an IT business analyst, project manager, best-selling author, and author of the upcoming book Interviewing Stakeholders.
