The Value of Perspectives

Empathy begins with understanding life from another person's perspective. Nobody has an objective experience of reality. It's all through our own individual prisms.
Sterling K. Brown

Every stakeholder is unique. Every stakeholder is going to different criteria for judging what is important.

On top of that, every stakeholder is going to learn and understand things in different ways.

These differences can be a huge source of value to a business analyst.

One of the ways these differences can be beneficial is in the reviewing of documents.

Typically, documents are reviewed to ensure they are accurate.

A far better purpose for reviewing documents is to obtain feedback from stakeholders that have different perspectives. Incorporating the feedback from all perspectives will result in a more rounded, congruent document that will be accepted by a wider range of stakeholders.
