~ Laurence Peter
Enterprise Architecture is a truly dangerous profession that:
- has unwieldy scope encompassing business, systems, data and technology architecture.
- can be highly political
- requires deep and diverse skills
- is widely misunderstood
- risks being perceived as needless overhead
With so many challenges — EA teams must be careful to find a effective value proposition.
