These headings look very much like the ISEB BA certificates and diploma course. Well, they have some good resources particularly their BCS Book series. Check out Business Analysis by Yeates et. al. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Business-Analysis-Don-Yeates/dp/1902505700

Get a copy of the BABOK from IIBA - last time I looked it was still free.

With regards to getting a taste -  One of the things vendors get a lot of is Business Requirements as part of the tender/system selection process. Well you work for a switched-on IT services company. ASk your employer if you could get MORE involved in the "Sales process", which involves satisfying Business Requirements of your prospects/customers. You'll get to see examplars of some good business requirements.

warm regards,
