Alan Kay famously said: “The best way to predict the future is to invent it”. As a key mind behind global phenomena including the Internet, Object Oriented Programming, Graphical User Interfaces and the use of computers in education, he should know. His PhD thesis in 1968, the “Dynabook”, is partially realised today as the iPad. But vision is not enough, it has to be followed by invention. In business terms that translates to strategy, architecture, innovation and design.
Join us in our Business Architecture Master Class, coming this May. We have condensed decades of research, experience, practice and techniques, including (b)leading edge techniques addressing topics such as business/IT/Digital Technology alignment, Blue Ocean strategy, exponential technologies, AI/deep learning, Internet of Things, blockchain and digital business models with proven thinking and modelling tools such as systems thinking, design thinking, decomposition, abstraction, inferencing and lateral thinking.
Integrate dimensions of value delivery, product, channels, process, service, capability, function, applications, information and technology with business models and organisation structure.
The Master Class uses innovative delivery including “TED-like” talks, video, focussed facilitation sessions and student challenges to fully engage participants and accelerate learning. Being a Master Class, we will be challenging you to work at a higher level using models, meta models, ontologies and taxonomies and adapting these to meet the unique needs of your organisations and current challenges. We will show how you can stay agile but integrated and sustainable, while reusing existing assets, driving change programmes and managing risk.
I will also be sharing fruits from my research into design of visual languages and insights on how to achieve effective communication and persuasion to ensure the invention efforts pay off in the real world.
Be one of the first to be certified and take away valuable models, skills and techniques from a unique experience. Please register your interest here. Participation limited to 25 delegates.
