Book Synopsis Adaptive Enterprise by : Stephan H. Haeckel
Download or read book Adaptive Enterprise written by Stephan H. Haeckel and published by Harvard Business Press. This book was released on 1999-06-15 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adaptive Enterprise outlines the new sense-and-respond business model that helps companies anticipate, adapt, and respond to continually changing customer needs. Author Stephan Haeckel shows how large, complex organizations can adapt in a systematic way to the unpredictable demands of rapid, relentless change--if the organization is designed and managed as an adaptive system. In fact, the only kind of strategy that makes sense in the face of change is a strategy to become adaptive. Haeckel maps out a step-by-step plan that firms can use to transform themselves into a new type of organization, one where change is not a problem to be solved but rather a source of energy, growth, and value. Adaptive Enterprise is both a new way of thinking about business and a prescription for leadership of post-industrial organizations. It is, as Adrian Slywotsky says in his foreword, "a book that will influence the influencers of business thought."

Book Synopsis Complex Enterprise Architecture by : John D. McDowall
Download or read book Complex Enterprise Architecture written by John D. McDowall and published by Apress. This book was released on 2019-02-07 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Implement successful and cost-effective enterprise architecture projects. This book provides a new approach to developing enterprise architecture based on the idea of emergent behaviors—where instead of micromanaging system implementation, the enterprise architecture effort establishes clear goals and leaves the details to the implementation teams. System development efforts are measured based on their contribution to achieving business goals instead of implementing specific (possibly outdated) requirements. Most enterprise architecture initiatives employ one of the existing system architecture frameworks such as Zachman or The Open Group Architecture Framework, but these are not well-suited for enterprise architecture in a modern, agile organization. The new approach presented in this book is based on the author’s experience with large enterprise architecture efforts. The approach leverages research into complex adaptive systems and emergent behaviors, where a few simple rules result in complex and efficient enterprise behaviors. Simplifying the task of establishing and maintaining the enterprise architecture cuts the costs of building and maintaining the architecture and frees up those resources for more productive pursuits. System implementers are given the freedom to rapidly adapt to changing user needs without the blessing of the enterprise modeling priesthood, and the architecture is transformed from a static pile of obscure models and documents into an operational framework that can be actively used to manage an enterprise’s resources to better achieve business goals. The enterprise architect is free to stop focusing on building and maintaining models and start focusing on achieving business goals. What You’ll Learn Refocus enterprise architecture on business needs by eliminating most of the enterprise-level models Delegate tasks to the development teams who do system implementation Document business goals, establish strategies for achieving those goals, and measure progress toward those goals Measure the results and gauge whether the enterprise architecture is achieving its goals Utilize appropriate modeling techniques that can be effectively used in an enterprise architecture Who This Book Is For Architecture practitioners and architecture managers: Practitioners are experienced architects who have used existing frameworks such as Zachman, and have experience with formal architecture modeling and/or model-based system engineering; managers are responsible for managing an enterprise architecture project and either have experience with enterprise architecture projects that were ineffective or are looking for a different approach that will be more cost-effective and allow for more organizational agility. Government program managers looking for a different approach to make enterprise architecture more relevant and easier to implement will also find this book of value.

Book Synopsis Adaptive Enterprise by : Stephan H. Haeckel
Download or read book Adaptive Enterprise written by Stephan H. Haeckel and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-07-22 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adaptive Enterprise: Creating and Leading Sense-and-Respond Organizations, published in June 1999, described the managerial implications of transitioning from a capital intensive to an information intensive economy. It proposed a very different way to think about organizational strategy, structure and governance, including the rigorous application of system design principles. Among the benefits of doing so are guarantees of alignment, customer focus and coherent empowerment. In 1999, there were accounts of a few early adopters of "Sense-and-Respond," but no repertoire of implementation tools, techniques, and lessons learned. What these pioneers and their successors learned and developed have been captured in this Workbook. It is an important How companion to the What and Why of Adaptive Enterprise.
Book Synopsis Agile Service Development by : Marc Lankhorst
Download or read book Agile Service Development written by Marc Lankhorst and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-04-23 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Economies around the globe have evolved into being largely service-oriented economies. Consumers no longer just want a printer or a car, they rather ask for a printing service or a mobility service. In addition, service-oriented organizations increasingly exploit new devices, technologies and infrastructures. Agility is the ability to deal with such changing requirements and environments. Agile ways of working embrace change as a positive force and harness it to the organization's competitive advantage. The approach described in this book focuses on the notion of a service as a piece of functionality that offers value to its customers. Instead of solely looking at agility in the context of system or software development, agility is approached in a broader context. The authors illustrate three kinds of agility that can be found in an agile enterprise: business, process and system agility. These three types of agility reinforce each other and establish the foundation for the agile enterprise. Architecture, patterns, models, and all of the best practices in system development contribute to agile service development and building agile applications. This book addresses two audiences. On the one hand, it aims at agile and architecture practitioners who are looking for more agile ways of working in designing and building business services or who are interested in extending and improving their agile methods by using models and model-based architectures. On the other hand, it addresses students of (enterprise) architecture and software development or service science courses, both in computer science and in business administration.

This book was released on 2019-01-24 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book investigates solutions incorporated by architecture boards in global enterprises to resolve issues and mitigate related architecture risks, while also proposing and implementing an adaptive integrated digital architecture framework (AIDAF) and related models and approaches/platforms, which can be applied in companies to promote IT strategies using cloud/mobile IT/digital IT. The book is divided into three main parts, the first of which (Chapters 1–2) addresses the background and motivation for AIDAF aligned with digital IT strategies. The second part (Chapter 3) provides an overview of strategic enterprise architecture (EA) frameworks for digital IT, elaborates on the essential elements of EA frameworks in the digital IT era, and advocates using AIDAF, models for architecture assessment/risk management, knowledge management on digital platforms. In turn, the third part (Chapters 4–7) demonstrates the application and benefits of AIDAF and related models, as shown in three case studies. “I found this book to be a very nice contribution to the EA community of practice. I can recommend this book as a textbook for digital IT strategists/practitioners, EA practitioners, students in universities and graduate schools.” (From the Foreword by Scott A. Bernard) “In this new age of the digital information society, it is necessary to advocate a new EA framework. This book provides state-of-the art knowledge and practices about EA frameworks beneficial for IT practitioners, IT strategists, CIO, IT architects, and even students. It serves as an introductory textbook for all who drive the information society in this era.”(From the Foreword by Jun Murai)
Book Synopsis Best Practices for Knowledge Workers: Innovation in Adaptive Case Management by : Nathaniel Palmer
Download or read book Best Practices for Knowledge Workers: Innovation in Adaptive Case Management written by Nathaniel Palmer and published by Future Strategies Inc.. This book was released on 2017-10-20 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Best Practices for Knowledge Workers describes ACM, in non-technical terms, in the current era of digitization, Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI), intelligent BPMS and BPM Everywhere. Business readers will learn how support of adaptive, data-driven processes empowers knowledge workers to know in real-time what is happening at the edge points, and to take actions through the combination of rule-driven guidance and their own know-how. It is not a traditionally-automated system but intelligent automation, where technology doesn’t merely replace human decision-making but extends the reach of the knowledge worker; making IoT data actionable. Highly predictable work is easy to support using traditional programming techniques, while unpredictable work cannot be accurately scripted in advance, and thus requires the involvement of the knowledge workers themselves. The core element of Adaptive Case Management (ACM) is the support for real-time decision-making by knowledge workers. In award-winning case studies covering industries as a diverse as law enforcement, transportation, insurance, banking, state services, and healthcare, you will find instructive examples for how to transform your own organization. This important book follows these ground-breaking best-sellers on ACM; Thriving on Adaptability, Empowering Knowledge Workers, Taming the Unpredictable, How Knowledge Workers Get Things Done, and Mastering the Unpredictable and provides important papers by thought-leaders in this field, together with practical examples, detailed ACM case studies and product reviews

Book excerpt: Lessons from Agile’s First Decade...Leadership for Agile’s Next Decade The agile software movement has now been around for a full decade. As coauthor of the original Agile Manifesto, Jim Highsmith has been at its heart since the beginning. He’s spent the past decade helping hundreds of organizations transition to agile/lean. When it comes to agile, he’s seen it all–in a variety of industries, worldwide. Now, in Adaptive Leadership, he has compiled, updated, and extended his best writings about agile and lean methods for a management audience. Highsmith doesn’t just reveal what’s working and what isn’t; he offers a powerful new vision for extending agility across the enterprise. Drawing on what’s been learned in application development, this guide shows how to use adaptive leadership techniques to transform the way you deliver complete solutions, whatever form they take. You’ll learn how enterprise agility can enable the ambitious organizational missions that matter most; how leaders can deliver a continuous stream of value; how to think disruptively about opportunities, and how to respond quickly by creating more adaptive, innovative organizations. Coverage includes Discovering and executing new business opportunities far more quickly Delivering complete business solutions earlier, and iterating them more often Organizing for innovation, and systematically managing opportunity flow Clarifying the degree of strategic, portfolio, and operational agility you need, and focusing on your highest-value transformations Creating cultures that actually can adapt and learn Reinvigorating the roots of agile value and values Understanding IT’s changing value proposition, and retraining your people accordingly Integrating economics, products, and social responsibility Choosing metrics that guide agility, not counterproductive traditional metrics Understanding the financial implications of technical debt Optimizing business value by doing less–and guiding the process with ”NOT to do“ lists Speculating intelligently when you can’t plan away uncertainty Customizing management to each project’s needs (because not all projects should be equally agile)

Book Synopsis Pathway to Adaptability by : Wayne L. Staley
Download or read book Pathway to Adaptability written by Wayne L. Staley and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2008-09-22 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Building the Foundation for the Smart Enterprise Business enterprises must capitalize on market opportunities, provide current customers with exemplary service, develop new products, control costs and reduce lead-times. One of the key business strategies to achieve these objectives is to develop a smart enterprise that changes information access and business response from weeks and days to hours and minutes. The foundational systems must provide accurate data if information is to be up-loaded into analytics to achieve decision support capability. These include ERP, Supply Chain, Engineering, CRM and Distribution systems that can be positioned to perform greater intelligence gathering and processing. Building the intelligent enterprise requires business systems capable of providing a stream of viable data to analytics. Analytics use the data gathered to produce the intelligence needed to everyone within the value chain. The Pathway to Adaptability was written as a tool to evaluate the capability of the current systems to support the adaptive enterprise and discusses ways to fix the broken components. Pathway to Adaptability is divided into core components. • The Lean concepts are put into executive terms and applied to governance. Creating the foundation for the intelligent enterprise starts with the Board of Directors and Executive management. They control the policies and strategies that drive the actions of the business. The board establishes the operating principles including those affecting employees. These latter policies determine how the employees will interact on issues such as flexibility, innovation and the application of Lean principles. • Systems concepts are applied to enterprise business and software systems. These concepts establish the foundation for the integrated convergence of markets, systems, processes, and products. • The eight-step approach builds on the Lean and Enterprise Information structures to summarize the process any company must travel to build adaptability. This book is must reading for those who need to understand how to build an adaptive, intelligent enterprise. One of the criteria was to keep it short by giving the readers credit for comprehension. The result is a fast read that summarizes a significant amount of relevant information. To order: Pathwaytoadaptability.com
