Great summary. I’m looking to get back in and that was a great refresher. A business degree in information systems is a nice fit but also a diverse business degree such as international business accompanied by disciplined experiences in consulting or audit to give you experiences with frameworks. You can be an introvert as long as you are excited and have passion. Not the kind of job you can isolate yourself even if you are a one person team. If you are introvert, you will rely more in understanding BA approached and use it as a checklist/plan. No matter what though, you have to have knowledge, at least at the high level of IT frameworks and how solutions are implemented. Unavoidable and integral.

As an introverted person, does it mean that you can't become a business analyst, or it's just a misconception?

These Gurus never tell the real thing they just talk about general stuff. In the real world the biggest problem with BA job is that you have many roles and it gets hard to select one of those because your available search will be small then

1) BA-HR
2) BA-ERP
3) BA-CRM
4) BA-FINTECH
5) BA-ServiceNow

So it’s not too many BA jobs it’s actually too many domains … when you search for a specific domain then jobs are limited … and that why it is super hard to get into BA jobs

The whole concept of "leading without authority" means absolutely nothing outside of a start-up or small company. When you're working for an organization with 30, 000+ employees, there has to be a formal regulatory body to enforce policies that enhance processes for streamlining efforts.
