Hey there, LeanIX customers and Architects!
Enterprise Architecture (EA) services are incredibly valuable, but sometimes, the theoretical and abstract nature makes it challenging to explain its value/position to the organization. TOGAF describes an EA service as “a manual or automated service that supports processes and business capabilities ... governed by an organization, and what kind of services your EA community offers.”
To help spark discussions and improve collaboration, we published a 'How To Sell EA Services To The Business' blog/framework based on customer interviews, and we believe that involving the business stakeholders in defining EA services is crucial, as it specifies the portfolio structure and value of EA services to the organization. I would love to get this group’s opinion on the following questions (blog post has further questions to consider:)
- Does your EA practice offer well-defined EA Services?
- How well have EA services helped you execute against your overall business strategy?
- What are your top 3 tips for raising the relevance of EA to business stakeholders?
We encourage you to engage in these discussions, share your experiences (positive or constructive), and ask any questions you may have. We'll incorporate your CSM into the discussion. Let's work together on understanding the "why" behind EA services with noteworthy interactions and conversations within our community!
Thanks,
Ricky Urdaneta
