Answer is A. BABOK PG 43
BABOK page 33
Answer is A
Both answer A and C seems to be correct but out of the two option C seems to be more correct and relates more closely with BABOK description of continuous stakeholder analysis (pg. 344). 10.43.2 Relates partially to the option A, it talks about Attitude and Interest and not Attitude and Influence. 10.43.3 Relates closely to option C as it talks about iterative engagement because there can be a change in stakeholder position in matrix due to requirement change and other changes. 10.43.2 Common types of stakeholder characteristics that are worth identifying and analyzing include: attitudes toward or interest in the change being undertaken 10.43.3 Throughout a project, a stakeholder’s position on the matrix can change due to organizational, environmental, or requirement scope changes. Due to these potential changes, stakeholder analysis is considered iterative and reviewed frequently by the business analyst.
correct answer is a
A. Attitudes and influence Explanation: Stakeholder analysis involves identifying all stakeholders involved in a project and understanding their needs, expectations, attitudes, and the influence they have over the project. This understanding helps in managing stakeholder relationships, addressing concerns, and ensuring successful project outcomes. Why Not C? Changes in business needs: While understanding changes in business needs is crucial for a BA, it is not the primary focus of stakeholder analysis. Changes in business needs are typically identified through requirements elicitation and continuous business analysis activities, not specifically through stakeholder analysis.
