Architecting for Outcomes: A Modern Approach to Enterprise Architecture

Explore a modern approach to enterprise architecture in this 17-minute conference talk from PlatformCon 2023. Learn how to align with business agility principles and practices, avoiding the pitfall of optimizing for outputs rather than outcomes. Gain real-world practical lessons from the transformation of a 30-year-old financial services organization's technology strategy and ways of working. Discover how to incorporate concepts from DevOps, Extreme Programming, Continuous Delivery, systems thinking, Team Topologies, and Project to Product to achieve practical business value while delivering long-term architecture and organizational transformation. Presented by Simon Rohrer, Head of Enterprise Technology Architecture at Saxo Bank, this talk draws from his experience and contributions to Jonathan Smart's IT Revolution Press book, "Sooner Safer Happier."
