Stick Figures & Salesforce: A Business Analyst’s Guide to Visual Storytelling, Pei Mun Lim
Transform your data models, process flows, and system context diagrams from complex to compelling! As a BA who moonlights as a cartoonist, I’ll show you how the principles of single-panel storytelling can revolutionize your technical documentation.
Through practical examples and (very amateur) live sketching, you’ll learn how two key questions – “who’s it for?” and “what’s it for?” – can elevate your BA diagrams from good to great. Whether you’re mapping complex data relationships, documenting business processes, or designing integration flows, you’ll discover techniques to make your visuals more engaging and effective, regardless of artistic ability.
Warning: May contain occasional cartoon-related humor. Stick figure drawing skills optional, but enthusiasm required!
