E67: Underlying Competancies

In this episode of Business Analysis Simplified, Michael and Emily explore the hidden skills that power every great business analyst: the Underlying Competencies.
These are the essential abilities—like analytical thinking, communication, teamwork, business knowledge, and smart technology use—that make business analysis more effective and impactful.

To bring these ideas to life, they follow a fun, real-world story where Emma, Jack, Sophia, and Liam work together to plan a Community Carnival at Maplewood Town Center.
Through this lively example, Michael explains how each competency shows up naturally, from solving layout problems to managing volunteers and making clear announcements.

Emily asks the key questions along the way, helping uncover why these skills matter, how they apply in business environments, and what common mistakes to avoid.
Packed with practical tips, real-world connections, and a few laughs, this episode will help you understand why building strong underlying competencies is the true foundation for successful business analysis.

Join Michael and Emily for a fun, insightful journey—and discover how mastering these hidden superpowers can make all the difference in your BA career!
