The Strategic Enterprise Architect’s Dilemma presents a theoretical basis and a practical methodology for architecting flexible enterprise capabilities in a disruptive context. It includes many examples from the authors’ work with clients, research, courses they developed and taught, and communities of practice they led at major technology companies.
The book introduces six Strategic EA views and an Adaptive Enterprise Cycle methodology that emphasizes capability fitness, including continuous learning and adaptation. The views and methodology “mash up” concepts and approaches from many disciplines, helping practitioners make enterprise architecture strategic and actionable.
The book is a highly scannable collection of key information (both text and graphics) along with deeper discussions and examples. See the full abstract.
