Certification of Capability in Business Analysis (CCBA) — Question 29

You are a business analyst for your organization. Your current business analysis endeavor includes working with stakeholders who are located in offices around the world. Because these stakeholders are dispersed, what are likely to increase in this endeavor as opposed to a collocated group of stakeholders?

Answer options

• A. Face-to-face meetings
• B. Communication needs
• C. Risks
• D. Costs

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, as dispersed stakeholders typically require more communication to ensure alignment and understanding. In contrast, face-to-face meetings (A) are less feasible and thus may not increase, while risks (C) and costs (D) may not necessarily rise directly due to dispersion; communication needs are the primary concern in this scenario.
