The Role of an Enterprise Architect

Although there still seems to be some debate about this catch-all title, in its simplest form, an Enterprise Architect is about managing change.

Enterprise Architecture models the way an organization works, starting with business strategies and working down to IT infrastructure. An Enterprise Architect provides a blueprint illustrating how the organization is structured and how everything inter-relates. Knowing how the different parts of the organization work together is important to properly plan for the future.

Enterprise Architecture also includes the people in the organization. How people interact with IT is just as important to the Enterprise Architect as the IT itself.
