EA Effectiveness: It’s not about how much you know but how you use it
The document provides an overview of soft skills and emotional intelligence for enterprise architects. It discusses how architects traditionally focus more on technical IQ over EQ, and the impacts of that. It encourages shifting to a mindset of starting with understanding why before considering how or what. The document provides tips for architects' communication journeys, including learning from other professions, body language, accountability, and having a sense of humor. Resources for further developing soft skills and EQ are also listed.
