Strategic change management in large organizations is complex, involving hundreds to thousands of people across multiple programs and projects. It requires addressing both structural and cultural changes while continuing business operations. Successful change depends on establishing a clear need for change, communicating an attractive vision, and convincing people the change is practical. It also requires overcoming resistance, which varies based on the perceived threats and benefits of change. A holistic approach is needed to coordinate all elements of the organization, as modeled by frameworks like the Burke-Litwin Change Model. While new processes and systems are important, truly benefiting requires supporting people through the emotional transitions of change over time.
Change Management, Measurement and Tracking_2015Eliana Arruda
This document discusses the importance of measuring organizational change programs. It notes that changes are happening constantly in most organizations to adapt to a changing business environment. While there are many change management methodologies and tools available, tracking whether promised benefits are actually delivered remains a key challenge. Effective measurement is important because changes often take longer and cost more than planned. The document then introduces the Accenture Change Tracking Tool as one solution for systematically measuring change programs against key performance indicators. It argues that using proven tools can help minimize the effort required to track changes over time.

Your Challenge
It is difficult to start the project, engage the right people, and find the necessary requirements to drive the value of an enterprise architecture operating model.
It is challenging to navigate the common enterprise architecture (EA) frameworks and right-size them for your organization.
The EA practice may struggle to effectively collaborate with the business when making decisions, resulting in outcomes that fail to engage stakeholders.
Our Advice
Critical Insight
The benefits of an EA program are only realized when all components of the operating model enable the achievement of the program goals and objectives. Many times organizations overplay the governance card while ignoring the motivational aspects that can be addressed through the organization's structure or stakeholder relations.
Info-Tech’s methodology ensures that all components of an EA operating model are considered to optimize the performance of the EA program.
Impact and Result
Place and structure your EA team to address the needs of stakeholders and deliver on the previously created strategy.
Create an engagement model by understanding each relevant process of COBIT 5 and make stakeholder interaction cards to initiate conversations.
Recognize the need for governance and formulate the appropriate boards while considering various policies, principles, and compliance.
Develop a unique architecture development framework based on best-practice approaches with an understanding of the various architectural views to ensure the creation of a successful process.
Build a communication plan and roadmap to efficiently navigate through enterprise change and involve the necessary stakeholders.

Architecting Next Generatio IT Operating Models Using IT4IT and SFIASukumar Daniel
The document summarizes an architecture initiative undertaken by Action Research Foundation to transform an organization's IT operating model. The initiative involved applying TOGAF and IT4IT frameworks to architect the next generation service provider organization. Key aspects included establishing an architecture capability, governance processes, and iteratively developing visions and architectures. The delivered solution established function and people management services to improve alignment and establish an innovation ecosystem needed for the target operating model of a customization studio.
Responses to Questions on the Webinar World class EA - Governor's Approach to...Sriram Sabesan
The document is a Q&A session on EA governance. It discusses that EA governance covers governance over the target architecture, implementation, value realization, and the EA practice itself. Tools like an EA repository and portfolio management can support governance but organizational maturity and processes are also needed. The architects should always align the architecture to the corporate strategy and goals before decisions are made. Metrics to measure EA value should be specific to each business' goals. Change management involves tracking changes to the target architecture or portfolio through governance reporting and stakeholder decisions. Governance of implementation changes involves creating architecture that guides rather than controls implementation while ensuring outcomes, interfaces, and operations are clear.
Best Practices for BA: Using enterprise architecture to deliver the right sol...Sergio Luis Conte
How to deliver the right solution is the "Business Analyst Dilema". This article talk about how to do that in a simple way using Enterprise Architecture as a guide.
TOGAF® based - Enterprise Architecture Capability
Enterprise architecture professionals have two key responsibilities: Help the enterprise leverage current capabilities to utmost and second Transform essential capabilities to help capitalize on opportunities presented by discontinuities in primary and secondary markets.
The document provides an introduction to enterprise architecture and discusses the context and need for enterprise architecture. It explains that as endeavors increase in complexity, the need for a guiding architecture blueprint also increases. For large, complex enterprise systems, an enterprise architecture is essential for successful construction, ongoing development and modifications. The document uses various examples like constructing a hut, wood cabin, urban buildings, and townships to demonstrate increasing complexity and corresponding need for a stronger architectural framework. It emphasizes that building large information systems without an enterprise architecture would be like building a city without a city plan.
The continuous innovation model - combining Toyota Kata and TRIZ Teemu Toivonen
Companies are facing increasingly tough competition in the global economy. Previously sustainable competitive advantage strategies are insufficient in the changed market conditions. The only sustainable advantage is continuous innovation at a faster pace than rival organizations. This requires a systematic approach to innovation and engaging staff on all levels to effectively take part in the innovation efforts.
Toyota Kata is proven and highly successful method for continuous improvement at the whole organization level. Toyota Kata was discovered by Mike Rother while he researched Toyota’s quality improvement methods. It is a holistic system method for improvement efforts which contains processes and behavioral patterns for strategically aligned goal setting, problem solving, coaching, management and training. It is a simple and teachable approach which also covers the management of improvement efforts. The downside of the approach is its focus on incremental improvement instead of breakthrough innovation.
The approach can be improved by adding TRIZ techniques like contradiction analyses, FAA, inventive principles and trends of evolution to various parts of the method. This approach will allow to keep the benefits of the Toyota Kata approach while changing the focus from incremental improvement to true innovation. The combined approach is also better suited for the more complex problems of today’s knowledge workers. Toyota Kata can also be used as method for introducing and training TRIZ to the organization in an effective and incremental way.
The combined method for continuous innovation can be further improved with the Lean Startup methods to validate the solutions. The Lean Startup experimentation approach is geared to design quick and inexpensive approaches for the market validations of service, management and software innovations.
The document discusses how enterprise architecture can help organizations manage complexity and achieve transformation. It provides an overview of global CEO studies that found most CEOs expect greater complexity and many doubt their ability to manage it. Effective enterprise architecture allows organizations to better manage complexity on behalf of customers and partners. It provides executives a holistic view of business and IT domains and helps align IT investments with business goals. Developing an enterprise architecture is a journey that establishes the current and desired future states of an organization through roadmaps.

Living in age of transformation
• There is no doubt we live in the “age of transformation”
• This creates a need for establishing transformative organizations
• A transformative organization is able to guide the metamorphosis
of other organizations and IT ecosystems
• Transformative Enterprise Architecture (TEA) presents and
elaborates a straw-man formula for establishing a transformative
EA practice
• Transformative organization = resilient (core capabilities +
operational competencies + mission-critical capacity)

TEA – AN APPROACH
FOR ESTABLISHING
TRANSFORMATIVE
ARCHITECTURE
PRACTICE

Chapter 1 – the context
• TEA is not a new methodology for enterprise architecture
• Does not describe a process for establishing a practice – rather describes
the “transformative” state of organizations
• TEA is not another architecture framework
• Does not define standardized structures, design patterns and other
constructs required to form a framework
• TEA is not a new organization maturity model
• Does not describe a prescriptive scale for assessing maturity of
organizations
• TEA is a straw-man model of architecture organizations capable of
operating successfully in the “age of transformation”
6. Copyright 2015 - 2016. All rights reserved. Atul Apte 6
The straw-man model of a transformative
architecture practice
• Begins with an introduction to some new ground rules for
enterprise architecture discipline and EA organizations
1. Define the characteristics and dynamics of transformation
2. Rethink organization and IT ecosystem viewpoints
3. Develop a decision lens specifically for transformation strategies and
initiatives
4. Elaborate the transformation context for organizations and IT
ecosystems
5. Clarify and elevate the urgency for radical changes
6. Establish a preference for methodical transformations
7. Embody the principle of transformation by choice in organizations
• Some of these ground rules have pictures to clarify the point….

Chapter 2 – reslience, the defining characteristic
of transformative entities (organizations)
• In the age of transformation, resilience has risen as a high priority
organizational characteristic @ par with efficiency, innovation, and
agility
• Resilience is a form of risk management that mitigates an
organizations vulnerabilities by increasing its tolerance for
unexpected events and outcomes
• Resilience is critical for managing simultaneous changes, one of the
likely consequence of radical change
• TEA makes an assertion that in the age of transformation, IT
organizations and IT ecosystems must be fundamentally resilient

CAPACITIES OF
TRANSFORMATIVE
ARCHITECTURE
PRACTICE
60. Copyright 2015 - 2016. All rights reserved. Atul Apte 60
TEA highlights the need for establishing
appropriate capacities to guide transformations
• Capacity to model the lifecycles of organizations and IT ecosystems
is critical for discovering connections and dependencies between
entities (organizations and IT ecosystems)
• Capacity to capture and analyze lifecycles of complex entities
• Tooling and automation strategy for EA organizations
• A transformative architecture practice applies the principles of TEA to itself
• T&A strategy enables EA organizations to encode the architecture of
organizations and IT ecosystems
• Elevator speech – raising awareness for radical change in an
instance
• Transformation requires radical change and an elevator speech
summarizes the need for radical change

Chapter 11 – an elevator speech on TEA
• TEA sheds light on the new ground rules for practicing enterprise
architecture
• TEA highlights the need for EA practice to be resilient (not just
adaptable) and drive radical change
• TEA emphasizes the greater need for stakeholder and decision-
maker orientation of EA recommendations, outputs, and outcomes
• Business and IT organizations that establish a transformative
architecture practice have a distinct competitive advantage
72. Copyright 2015 - 2016. All rights reserved. Atul Apte 72
Orientation of capabilities and competencies –
an indicator of organizational maturity
73. Copyright 2015 - 2016. All rights reserved. Atul Apte 73
Parting words…
• Being adaptable and being resilient are two different things
• Being adaptable makes conforming to change (even unwanted change) easier
• Being resilient is essential to drive change in the face of challenging
circumstances and constant resistence to change (even good change)
• TEA will hopefully trigger deeper and meaningful changes within EA
organizations
• EA organizations need to get ahead and stay ahead of the organizational curve
• EA practitioners must be not only catalysts (accelerators) of change but also
drivers of radical change
• Authoring this book has been a great learning experience into the future
evolutions of enterprise architecture discipline
• Authors’ note – its pure coincidence that the elevator speech on TEA happens to be chapter
11 of the book
