Sinopsis

The book is organised into a series of Chapters within Sections. It covers a range of Business Analysis Tools oriented towards Problem Solving & Decision Making and their hands-on Applications, through Examples and Case Studies, in general. In particular, the book develops and enhances these through a full Practices Section. A set of Complementary Tools are studied and applied in some depth, including: The Ishikawa Diagram, the Pareto Analysis, the Multi-Criteria Analysis, the Root Cause Analysis, the Brainstorming, the Weighted Vote, the 5Ws and the 5Ys. It addresses each of these models in some details including their areas of application, as appropriate. Finally, it brings some of the models together into action, as appropriate, through the Practices Session whereby the Tools are applied together as the need arises to complement the Multi-Criteria Analysis, for example, and to empower your Business Analysis as a whole. The book is written in such a way as to enable you to develop your understanding of Business Analysis Tools, and empower such learning through practice, by applying these Tools to concrete Case Studies and interactive Exercises in general, and through a fully dedicated Practices Section, in particular.Where appropriate, each Tool in the book builds on the previous one.

They are the building blocks of the Book and each corresponds to a Section or a Chapter of the book.Through these, the book illustrates how Business Analysts select different Analytic Tools for different situations and how they often apply more than one Analytical Tool for the same analysis Case Study. The book promotes thus the awareness that each Tool has its strong and weak points and is thus applied for what it is best suited for. Although the book addresses part of the Analysis by setting the focus on three key areas - The Ishikawa Diagram, the Pareto Analysis and the Multi-Criteria Analysis - it remains a practical and a step by step Guide to understanding and implementing Analytic Tools including Ishikawa Diagram, Pareto Analysis, Multi-Criteria Analysis, Root Cause Analysis, Weighted Vote, the 5Ws and the 5Ys.As such, the book provides you with the essential information to Assess your Business, Understand and Solve its Problems and Make appropriate Objective Decisions and thus saves you time.
