Context: Changing Mission of IT
�IT-led teams have consistently found new ways to streamline enterprise business processes, vastly improving operating efficiency and reducing costs.
Corporate leaders, however, are raising the bar: they expect IT�score mission to expand from cost-cutting to enabling revenue generation within a short period of time.�

Managing Complexity � McKinsey
�When companies treat complexity as something they must overcome, they miss an opportunity.�
�If complexity, in all its aspects, is seen as a challenge to be managed and potentially exploited,
not as a problem to be eliminated, businesses can generate additional sources of profit
and competitive advantage�
McKinsey Quarterly 2007, Cracking the Complexity Code

� is an architectural strategy to design and fulfill business scenarios using service-orientation
� is NOT the underlying technology
� may be applied to business, organizational, �application� and infrastructure domains
� gets its power from composability
� mixes well with BPM, Event Processing and Web 2.0
... allows IT to instantiate the intent of business strategists
� requires business and IT collaboration
� needs to be managed as an ecosystem

Business-Driven SOA
�Our entry is always the process and that�s what we actually talk about � how to optimize the process,
how to drive the process�
When I hear business people talk about systems and they mention System A, System B, System C, I know
we�re in trouble.
Because basically that means to me is that we are locked into the constraints of the environment.�

A Great Enterprise Architect�
1. Is not afraid to make mistakes, and always learns from them.
2. Knows one answer does not fit all problems. Understands any given problem may have many good answers.
3. Builds a community to create an environment of compliance, rather than one of enforcement.
4. Asks great questions that compel further discussion, research, collaboration and innovation.
5. Makes smart compromises, never boxing himself/herself in.

A Great Enterprise Architect�
6. Doesn�t work on an island. Collaborates internally and externally. Researches opposite points of view.
7. Considers technology in terms of business benefits, rather than the technological cool factor.
8. Is equally effective in a leadership, collaborator, or follower role.
9. Thinks holistically, yet acts pragmatically.
10. Can innovate, simply.
11. Is Business-Smart�

Enterprise Architects Need Business Smarts
�One of my VPs said, I�m never bringing [architect] to another meeting because he opens his mouth and all that ever comes out is SOA, SOA, services-oriented architecture, and I can�t bring him to my business
clients.
A year later, he is the most articulate business speaker and has really turned the community where they now
say, we want [architect] at all of our meetings.�

4. Is your Business IQ High Enough?
