Re: Key Skills 

 Understanding the business and the needs of the business even if they don't. The ability to take what they tell  you and interpret it back to them, absent technical terms, in a way they can understand it. All soft skills but that is what sets apart a great BA from everyone else. Anyone can learn the software tools but the ability to listen and interpret is golden.
