Most of the students are always interested in speaking with experts and practitioners in their areas, so if you are such and want to speak to students, let me know. If you are looking for a fresh graduate to […]
A great conversation yesterday with Australian facilitator Helena Read, around the word ‘belonging’, and how it links with vision and enterprise-vision.
In the enterprise, vision is the anchor for everything: the quality-system, the business-purpose, the enterprise itself. It’s a very human focus, literally emotive: “that which gets me out of bed in the morning”, and so […]

But then the challenge they face is how to link strategic with process KPIs. Others are practising some sort of BPM but have difficulties demonstrating its contribution to the bottom line. As […]
One of the minor frustrations of the toolmakers’ life – in enterprise-architecture as much as in other fields – is that often we don’t see our tools in action when used by others. I’ve been lucky in that regard in my collaboration with Michael Smith, a consultant in organisational change who works in Mexico and other […]
