Another weekend gone, but the revised draft of the enterprise-architecture book is up on the Tetradian site here. (Warning again that it’s large: more than 2.8Mb in PDF form. Let me know if you need the .DOC instead.) Main changes …

Sydneywards

By Tom G Posted on 11 March 2007 Posted in Business, The Outsider, Uncategorized No Comments

I’m off to Sydney tonight, on a four-month contract to set up an enterprise-architecture capability for a government department there. Will be off-air till I get things settled down in Aus. Shouldn’t be more than a couple of days, though.

Rushing to get everything ready for the trip to Sydney this evening, but I have completed the first draft of the enterprise-architecture book. Working-title is “Real Enterprise-Architecture: Beyond IT to the whole enterprise“. You’ll find the PDF here – though …

More TOGAF

By Tom G Posted on 5 March 2007 Posted in Business, Complexity / Structure 2 Comments

Despite my previous worries, my current clients have given me the go-ahead to go to the TOGAF Paris conference anyway – much appreciated, though it should be a win/win all round. Working title is “Unpacking ‘Phase B’: Business Architecture, Business …

On the road again?

By Tom G Posted on 1 March 2007 Posted in Business, The Outsider 3 Comments

After three months of time-wasting travail in this “foggy, dull and raw… nook-shotten isle of Albion”, turns out the only place I can get a real enterprise-architecture gig is back in Australia… So it looks like I’m back on the …

More on the EA book

By Tom G Posted on 26 February 2007 Posted in Business, Complexity / Structure, Power and responsibility, Society 4 Comments

Shawn Callahan at Anecdote kindly asked for a ‘preview of the topics’ in the enterprise-architecture book that I’m brewing. Existing enterprise-architecture frameworks – particularly TOGAF – all have a blurry, ill-described box labelled ‘business architecture’, which you’re supposed to deal …

Out in the back-room

By Tom G Posted on 25 February 2007 Posted in Business, Complexity / Structure, Knowledge, Power and responsibility, Society 3 Comments

Apologies for being a bit quiet lately: I’m working flat-out on a mini-book on enterprise-architecture, with the aim of having it ready, preferably in printed form, in time for the next TOGAF conference, in Paris, in late April 2007 (23-25, …

The relationship economy, and more

By Tom G Posted on 8 February 2007 Posted in Business, Futures, Power and responsibility, Society No Comments

One of the few online newsletters I subscribe to is that of Doc Searls, co-author of The Cluetrain Manifesto and other great ideas – and this time he came up trumps, with an article called “Building a Relationship Economy” (not …

And more enterprise-architecture

By Tom G Posted on 7 February 2007 Posted in Business, Complexity / Structure No Comments

Been hammering away over the past few weeks, trying to get down on paper (or equivalent) some of the ideas I’ve been brewing on enterprise-architecture and such-like. Hence yet another Powerpoint on the Tetradian website, on the exciting (to very …

Skill-sets for enterprise-architects

By Tom G Posted on 2 February 2007 Posted in Business, Complexity / Structure, Knowledge No Comments

A really good article on the skill-sets needed by enterprise-architects: Sally Bean, The elusive enterprise architect. I’d say it’s the closest I’ve ever seen to a straight business-type description of what I do in my professional work as Tetradian Consulting …
