What you'll learn
Find the question behind the request
Answer what the PM actually needs to decide, not only the ticket as written.
Bring a sized opportunity, not a request
Turn "we should look at this" into "this is worth X, and it needs half an engineer".
Make partners co-owners
Share credit so the next project gets staffed, and learn when to escalate and when to have lunch.
Triage requests to protect your best work
Use a simple checklist so ad hoc asks stop eating the time for work that changes decisions.
Why this topic matters
Most analysts lose influence by bringing requests. They find something important, share it in a channel, and watch it go nowhere. The analysts who get things done without authority bring a sized opportunity, a one-page pre-read, and an answer to the objection before anyone raises it. This session teaches that pattern, with AI sizing the prize and predicting what the PM and the engineering manager will push back on.
