This post promotes the BA Leadership Summit taking place on 12 June 2026 in Sydney, Australia. It is not a PhD, postdoctoral, or master’s opening; instead, it is a professional summit for business analysis leaders, practice leaders, and transformation professionals.

The program focuses on business analysis, business architecture, AI adoption, change management, and leadership development. Sessions include: Designing for Excellence in Business Analysis; Shift Left, Business Architecture, Our Future Roles – Strategic Analysis + Plus; Pipeline Disruption: Who Is Building the Next Generation of Business Analysts?; From Insight to Impact: Building High-Performing BA Teams; Build an AI Business Analyst – Live; and The Modern Change Engine.

Speaker profiles mention Associate Professor Hayden McDonald of Torrens University, who leads analytics programs and works on industry-integrated curricula, and Dr Terry Roach, Vice-President of Research & Innovation at Orbus Software, with honorary fellowships at the University of Technology Sydney and University of New South Wales. The summit also features other industry and academic contributors, including Niall Clerkin, Susan Moore, and others.

The event is especially relevant for people interested in the future of the BA profession, AI-enabled analysis, capability pathways, and building high-performing teams. One workshop is hands-on and designed for BA Practice Leaders to build a working AI-enabled Business Analyst framework.
