Requirements & API. Part 1 (26/10/2023)
Overview
On October 26, 2023, I hosted a webinar for Business Analysts about API and the requirements specifics about that (announcement).
I was very excited about that opportunity. Even that part was based on my previous materials published here in my blog, and from the offline API workshop, I spent a lot of time polishing and re-structuring the content to fit a remote audience with different backgrounds.
Personally, I do more like offline public speaking as it gives a sense of touch with people. While doing that online, you wonder whether people are still listening to you or you are not audible due to a connectivity issue. Also, you can't always see a reaction: you are just speaking with your laptop, hoping for the best.
My speech was in Russian, and after years, I am losing my ability to make such long and structured pieces in that language. All my professional communication is done in English. I made hundreds of demos and other presentations in English rather than Russian. So, sometimes, I felt that I was translating from English.
But overall, I had a good impression. I liked the questions from the audience and the general feedback. I am looking forward to Part 2 as there will be less theory and more practical examples with some tooling.
