Critical Thinking and Business Analysis in the Workplace

Now that you have read the Miniature Guide to Critical Thinking share your definition of critical thinking. Give an example of how you have utilized critical thinking in the workplace. In addition, search the open job listings on the web. Identify and post one new open position that requires business analysis skills. Cite the source about the job opening. Describe and discuss some business analyst skills required in the job opening. Discuss how the skills relate to the six knowledge areas presented in Chapter 1 of the BABOK® Guide and the skills required to think critically. Research in peer-reviewed journal articles and share how two experts define critical thinking, business analysis, or problem solving. Do you agree? Why or why not? Benchmark their definitions against yours. Evaluate the similarities and differences. In addition to peer-reviewed academic journal articles, back up all opinions with foundation knowledge from the BABOK Guide and in-class lessons. 
Safe Assign Submission:
To submit your original post to SafeAssign, you first need to go to Discussions – SafeAssign Checks link on the left navigation panel or Getting Started> Discussions – SafeAssign Checks (Weeks 1-8). In this link, you have unlimited attempts to upload your original post, return to check your SafeAssign score, fix your post if needed, and resubmit the corrected document by selecting the Start New button.  Once you press Start New, you no longer have access to the previous posts or their SafeAssign scores.  So, save those if you need a record to refer to as you make further corrections.
After you have submitted your final version of the original post and you are satisfied with the SafeAssign score and your corrections, copy/paste that same version of the original post to the discussion forum so your classmates and instructor can read it, by following the next steps below.
Remember: When you are ready to place your post in the discussion forum and/or reply to other threads, select the “Week 1 Discussion” link just above.
