Aggregated enterprise architecture wisdom
I wrote somewhere once that thinking with the majority is an excellent description of Google. Because one of the ways something rises to the top of your search results is that lots of other people have already looked at it, liked or linked to it.The ph…
The first annual BiZZdesign survey of enterprise architecture practitioners reveals an ‘agility gap’ between preparing for change and executing change. It must be closed if firms are to thrive. The COVID-19 pandemic forced change on businesses like never before. We’ve all seen or experienced the upheavals of switching to remote working overnight, moving whole business…
