# Pari Balkan
Business Analyst at Atos Secure Digital focused on clear requirements and continuous discovery.

## About

Pari Balkan untangles complex project requirements as a Business Analyst at Atos Secure Digital GmbH. Drawing from her background as a Scrum Master, she prevents the chaos that happens when agile teams receive user stories lacking real business context.

She focuses on strictly separating product discovery from technical delivery. In her talk exploring [why the "what" and "how" of a requirement are not enough](/videos/1934-why-the-what-and-how-of-a-requirement-are-not-enough), Pari breaks down how missing the "why" turns refinement into a guessing game. By building continuous discovery habits, she helps teams perfectly define the core problem before writing any code.
