Every sector today is being led by the wealthiest technology business leaders in history because those leaders embraced technology as a strategic capability. Eighty percent of executives believe “their business models are under attack” according to McKinsey Research. Leading organizations need business architects to build better business solutions. Organizations who plan to survive rapid technology, cultural changes, cyber security threats, artificial intelligence, and demands for more business agility must find skilled business architects who guide, analyze, recommend, communicate, and guide high risk transformations.

What is the role of a Business Architect?
A business architect provides leadership with strategic alignment of outcomes by defining why, who, what, when, where, and how to improve governance, capability, information, and process gaps. A business architect leverages people skills and business modeling techniques to deliver effective “to be” operating models and roadmaps. A business architect works to develop an integrated view of the enterprise using a shared knowledge management framework to ensure transformations, initiatives, and projects align with the strategic business vision.
