About this seminar
Ask yourself and your colleagues: Is your Enterprise Architecture influencing decisions, shaping investments, and enhancing performance ? Although everybody agrees that this is the real purpose of having an Enterprise Architecture, very few companies are able to answer the question affirmatively.
The fundamentals of Enterprise Architecture (EA) - frameworks, methods and tools - equip each Enterprise Architect for a career-long journey of successes and professional development through working with others. From designing solutions and roadmaps to maximising EA's contribution across the enterprise, the journey relies on Enterprise Architecture's ability to influence business decisions, to shape investments in change, and to measurably enhance enterprise performance.
This intensive two-day seminar and workshop focuses on successful management strategies for Enterprise Architecture. It includes - for example - measuring the architectural performance of an enterprise, discovering the often-unstated interpretations of corporate and business strategies, formulating a winning strategy for Enterprise Architecture itself, and executing that strategy every day through each architect's "play-or-pass" choices.
Entirely based on first-hand experiences of Enterprise Architecture in practice, the seminar will help you to:
This is a seminar for everyone who has an interest in the contribution and reputation of Enterprise Architecture. It is focused on the management and leadership aspects of EA, rather than the frameworks, tools and methods that architects use for designing solutions and roadmaps, so has a wider potential audience than many other EA-related seminars.
