The Essential Skills of a Business Architect (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798254468165)

Business architecture is a discipline that requires extensive knowledge and even more experience. The skills required of a business architect have always taken a back seat to the models, tools, and techniques many, but not all, business architects use regularly. This book identifies and defines over 60 skills essential to successfully practice business architecture, grouped into a set of competencies. By its nature, business architecture is a multidisciplinary profession that requires broad knowledge and long experience to know what works when, and what doesn't.

In addition, this book covers the necessary competencies, education and training, apprenticeship, and certification for business architecture to become a full professional. The book provides clear definitions of business architecture and what is required to integrate an enterprise across all capability dimensions. Several business scenarios are used to illustrate how the skills and knowledge of business architecture solve real problems and provide real value to an enterprise. Finally, business architecture maturity is described from three points of view: the individual practitioner, the leader of a business architecture practice, and an organization that makes use of business architecture practices. Each of these separate models is described in detail.
