Aggregated enterprise architecture wisdom
We really can’t explore the theme of people in enterprise-architecture without addressing the theme – and problem – of power.
In principle, power should be straightforward. The physics definition – roughly speaking – is that power is the ability to do work. Wherever there’s work to be done – in whatever form that that ‘work’ might […]
Another week, another week’s worth of Tweets and links. Usual categories, of course.
Enterprise architecture, business-architecture, strategy, business models and manner of related themes:
bartleeten: RT @PeterKretzman: Great description in FT of the “quintessential tightly coupled system”: HT @mkrigsman: “ordinary accidents” & IT failure http://bit.ly/gAqVrC #CIO <comparing risk-mgmt in banking to risk-mgmt in nuclear-power industry

Another week and – here in southern Australia at least – one of extreme contrasts, with very heavy rainfall followed by blistering sunshine. Not sure if the same is true of the week’s collection of Tweets and links, but find it for yourself, anyway. Usual categories, of course.
Enterprise-architecture, business-architecture, business-strategy, innovation and suchlike:
business_design: Capitalism2.0: 1) […]
More enterprise-architecture stuff, this time about the relationship between trust, value and money.
This starts from a Tweet by Swedish consultant Oscar Berg, which triggered off a back-and-forth flurry:
oscarberg: The main currencies of business have always been information & trust. They let us exchange favors, goods/money […]
“Gotta rush! Time equals money, ya know!”
But does it?
More accurately, are they ever actually equivalent?
It’s not a trivial question – because if they’re not equivalent, just how much damage is that metaphor doing to our enterprise-architectures, business-architectures and much else besides?
Closely related to this is another metaphor: “money equals value”. And that one can do […]
Another collection of Tweets and links from a cold, wet summer in Australia: usual categories, of course, after the usual ‘Read more…’ break:
Enterprise-architecture, business-architecture, business-strategy, innovation and suchlike:
greblhad: The Art of Enterprise Architecture – Section Six: Strengths and weaknesses http://wp.me/p7ejN-8d <interesting #entarch series – an adaptation of Sun Tzu’s ‘The Art of War’

A great meetup yesterday with Shawn Callahan (@unorder) and Kevin Bishop (@kevinbishop) of Australian consultancy Anecdote, and their upcoming launch of Zahmoo – a new web-based tool to manage stories and narrative-knowledge, for organisations, communities and families.
Over lunch the conversation wandered onto my work on enterprise-architecture and the Enterprise Canvas, and my latest book Mapping […]
Managing to keep up to date at present, so here’s the list of Tweets and links for the week (and year) just past. Usual categories, of course.
Enterprise-architecture, business-architecture, business strategy and suchlike:
tetradian: [post] Where is the information when we need it? http://bit.ly/hPBME3 #entarch #itarch #orgarch #systems
jdevoo: MIT SMR Analytics: New Path to Value http://bit.ly/g0ExUs – […]
A somewhat smaller collection of Tweets and links this time – mainly because people are heading off into their various holiday-seasons, I guess. Same categories as usual, though, preceded by the usual ‘Read more…’ link.
Enterprise-architecture, business-architecture, business-strategy, innovation and similar business themes:
SAlhir: RT @GreatestQuotes “There is nothing so useless as doing efficiently that which should […]
Finally catching up, though my cold is still such that I’m at risk of dripping into the keyboard – oh joys… Still, I do promise to return to other (more useful?) posts shortly – there’s quite a backlog built up whilst I’ve been sort-of out of action. In the meantime, yes, another week’s-worth […]
Slipping back a bit – combination of travel, bad jetlag and an even worse cold… Oh well. Anyway, another week’s-worth of Tweets and links, as usual, for whoever might find them useful.
Enterprise-architecture, business-architecture, business-strategy, business-models and suchlike businessy matters:
SAlhir: White Space, Dark Matter, and Enterprise Architecture http://bit.ly/i4LBIn <strong recommend #entarch #itarch
business_design: revised my […]
And finally close to catch-up (if I haven’t slipped again) – another week’s worth of Tweets and links. Lots of new stuff, of course, though nothing new as such in the categories, nor in the ‘Read more…’ link:
Enterprise-architecture, business-architecture, strategy, innovation and suchlike:
