Architecture Governance - Doing Things Right

Strategy is only half the battle, the other half is delivering change the right way.

In this video, Glenn Smyth, Chief Architect of Fragile to Agile, explores how to ensure your transformation isn’t just aiming for the right outcomes, but actually built to deliver them. You’ll learn what true architecture governance looks like, how to link Target State principles to business outcomes, and why doing things “right” means more than chasing cost savings.

From defining SMART outcomes and enforcing principles, to avoiding the Winchester House of digital transformation, this is a practical guide to building change that lasts.

Includes:
• What real architecture governance looks like (and what it’s not)
• How to set SMART outcomes and Target State design
• How principles link to business outcomes and prevent poor delivery decisions
• The truth about “tech debt” — and why it’s really enterprise debt
• What happens when you don’t govern change (hint: $500M doesn’t help)
