Walking the Business Architecture Talk

One of the questions I’m asked frequently is “how do I launch business architecture in my company?” I know it can be challenging–I have a lot of great responses to this question, and I offer classes specifically on this topic and consulting with organizations to do it. At the same time, I believe that benefits from business architecture techniques and models are already attainable for you regardless of your defined role, position or formality in the business. I always say, once you start thinking and acting like a business architect, regardless of where you sit, things will make sense to you in a new way and you will provide value for the business. I was a few minutes early for a lunch meeting a few weeks ago, so I stopped by a furniture store across the street from the restaurant that had a big sale sign out front. When I stepped into the store, it became clear by the room vignettes (and the prices) that this was an interior design retail showroom.

Most new business architecture (BA) teams jump right into defining business architecture models and frameworks. They spend incredibly little time defining the practice itself, what they want it to be, and how they are going to drive results. Yet this is where the challenge is.

Join Gregg Rock and two senior BA instructors, Linda Finley and Pat Salaski, as they discuss the objectives and unique value proposition of each of the core BA courses you need to get your practice off the ground and ensure long-term success.

The BA curriculum is designed specifically for individuals and organizations seeking to establish a standard BA training roadmap for their BA practice.
