Phil is excited to lead the IIBA NZ Chapter and is keen to support members in developing their skillsets and knowledge and gaining certification in the IIBA qualifications.
Phil has worked for 20 years in IT, internationally in Europe and Canada and here in NZ as a business analyst in government and telecommunications. He originally started as a developer in business intelligence before eventually becoming a business analyst, gaining his Certified Business Analysis Professional™ (CBAP®) qualification in 2015.
Of particular interest to Phil is

  • to standardise the way we teach and provide knowledge to members in the practice of business analysis
  • leading and developing deeper partnerships with industry and educational institutions in New Zealand

Phil understands the value of learning and teaching through the IIBA, having taught many students through running IIBA Accelerators Study groups and has been a capability lead in charge of over 50 business analysts.
"I consider this an absolute honour to represent the needs of the New Zealand BA profession through the IIBA. I want to make the most of this opportunity to get study groups working again across New Zealand, including remote areas. I also want people to reach out to us at the IIBA for help - we have a strong network to truly support BAs regardless of geography, level of knowledge and meeting people face-to-face through IIBA meetup groups."
