“Strategic Techniques in Business Analysis” by Olushola Adeyemo Helps Analysts Turn Strategy into Action

Birmingham, England Apr 19, 2026 (EMWNews.com) – A new professional guide, Strategic Techniques in Business Analysis: A Playbook for Practical Application by Olushola Adeyemo, delivers a hands-on, scenario-driven toolkit designed to help Business Analysts (BAs) operate confidently at the intersection of strategy and delivery.

Built for today’s volatile and fast-changing business environment, the book positions strategic analysis techniques not as abstract theory, but as practical decision tools that help organisationsnavigate uncertainty, identify opportunities, and mitigate risk.

A Technique-by-Technique Guide with Real-World Application

Each chapter follows a clear structure that supports learning and immediate workplace use:

1. Technique explanation (with professional alignment),2. A realistic business scenario, and3. A step-by-step application case showing how the technique drives measurable outcomes.

The playbook spans a broad strategic toolkit, including widely used frameworks such as PESTEL, SWOT, MOST/VMOST, Porter’s Five Forces, Balanced Scorecard, Business Model Canvas, Value Proposition Canvas, Value Chain, McKinsey 7S, Gap Analysis, Risk Analysis, Scenario Planning, and more–presented across a comprehensive table of contents that supports both structured reading and quick reference in the field.

Grounded in Recognised BA Standards

The book explicitly draws from globally recognised professional foundations, including:

BCS Business Analysis techniques, and IIBA’s BABOK Guide (CBAP-aligned), reinforcing the book’s credibility and direct relevance to BA practice and capability development.

Designed for Analysts, Leaders, and Delivery Teams

The author frames the book as both a learning resource and a working “field guide,” intended for:

Business Analysts seeking practical strategy-level methods, Project and Program Managers aligning initiatives to business goals, Consultants and strategists structuring client engagements, and Business leaders wanting a clear view of the tools used to shape strategy and execution.

A Playbook with a Clear Message: Strategic Analysis Must Be Practical

In the closing message, the book underscores its central argument: strategic techniques add value only when they can be applied at the right time, to real problems, producing clear outcomes–helping BAs become trusted advisors in shaping organisational futures.
