Key Questions for your EA

In a recent post at IT Business Edge, they ask four questions of your EA administrator to help determine if the enterprise architect is effectively doing their job.

1) Do people understand you?

2) Do people see you?

3) Do you understand the business and how technology – even so-called technology ‘best practices” — can limit it?

4) If you know how your business and IT systems compare to others – via benchmarks – do you know why?

In order for Enterprise Architecture to work, people have to know who you are and understand the processes you’re taking. As stated in the article, if you’ve said no to any of the questions, something about your EA processes aren’t working.
