Business and Dynamic Change: The Arrival of Business Architecture

Widely held as the most important Business Architecture book to date, the authors illustrate the discipline’s transformation from IT Enterprise Architecture to a business imperative necessary for rapid response to change.

Business and Dynamic Change
The Arrival of Business Architecture

This book represents the collaborative work of the industry’s top experts, and thought leaders. As explained in the Foreword by best-selling author Keith Swenson, Chair of the Business Architecture Working Group, “The chapters in this book are from visionaries who see the need for business leaders to define their organizations to be agile and robust in the face of external changes.”

Swenson adds,”The people making the architecture cannot know the pressures that will be faced. Instead, it must support leaders and executives within the organization to make consistently good decisions on how to adapt their practices. The architecture is not a plan that anticipates all the decisions, instead it embodies a set of core guiding principles that enable decision making.”

Part One The Big Picture of Architecture

Part Two Where the Rubber Meets the Road

Understand that the term “business” used this way is not limited to for-profit enterprises but includes all forms of organizations that have a strategic need to accomplish goals. Pragmatically speaking, business architecture is the conceptual understanding that people have on why particular choices were made in forming the organization in a particular way.

This book will help you understand your options and how to relate them to your own organization.
