This diagram helps illustrate my views on the relationship between BABOK Knowledge areas (and BA work activities) and BA communications.

Remember this is just me thinking out loud before I review the BABOK (2.0) draft chapter on Requirments Management Communication chapter. I'm postring up some greenfields thoughts before I start looking at the content so I can assess completeness, as well as accuracy of the content.

Your feedback is most welcome.

    This conceptual model is reminiscent of ISO 13407 for user-centred design.

    I would recommend you have a look at it, particularly given how it relates to scientific methodlogical principles of hypothesis and analysis. I think it's very relevant to your review of the BABOK.
