Welcome to Collective Genius
There are not enough experienced Business Analysts for the number of projects that need them. Our Mission at Collective Genius is to address the shortage of skilled Business Analysts by working with the organizations that are most passionate about business analysis, by developing business analysis centers of excellence, and providing ongoing knowledge sharing and business analysis talent.
Collective Genius is a Business and Information Technology Consulting Organization focused solely in the area Business Analysis, Business Systems Analysis, and Business Process Analysis. Being very niche and passionate we have created an organization that attracts top talent for our clients and provides ongoing advocacy and education for our local Business Analysis Communities.
We develop and maintain business analysis centers of excellence for organizations and we support organizations’ needs with the right business analysis talent including direct placement, contract to hire, and consultants.
Our success in attracting great talent is largely due to the fact Business Analysts appreciate that we focus solely in their profession and know them best. This is very different than the magnitude of generalist consulting/staffing organizations that try to do everything for everyone. Being niche, we have had the opportunity to become experts in the field and designed our organization, processes, and tools specifically for the Business Analyst.
As an advocate to the role of the Business Analyst, in 2006 Collective Genius developed the first online Community of Business Analysts called the BA Collective. The BA Collective is a gathering place for like-minded professionals dedicated to the practice of business analysis. This is a place for industry professionals to learn about developing trends and share their own thoughts and experiences with the community.
The reason we developed The BA Collective is to unite a community of Business Analysts and provide a place where we can all share experiences and continually evolve our knowledge within our roles throughout our careers.
Our mission in parallel with Collective Genius and the BA Collective is to bridge the gap between the need for professional and experienced Business Analysts and the projects that need them. We hope with your support of Collective Genius and the BA Collective, together we will continue to accomplish this mission.

Management Cybernetics is the science of effective organization. Despite its name, Chaos Theory centers on self-organizing systems. Cybernetics is expert in complexity. Chaotic systems are complex systems that can self-organize when key independent variables become synchronized through positive and negative feedback. The connection is clear. Management Cybernetics is interested in finding the invariant features of viable systems and self-organization from chaos is one of them. The border or edge of chaos is the thin border where information captures energy to reproduce the organization.
