Masterclass: Agile Architecture

What is this masterclass about?

Many organizations are moving away from traditional (waterfall) approaches to a more agile way of working. No more documentation, no more processes, no more reporting, no more long-term thinking and strategies, no more architecture sounds like the new credo in some of these companies. Yet, typically, these companies seem to fail in their agile transformation systematically.

Why is that? Agility is not the synonym of unmanaged! On the contrary, it needs solid and aligned leadership from the top and requires new skills, behaviors, and mindsets across the organization. Let’s take a closer look at the impact of agile transformations on the role of the enterprise architect and how the EA discipline can still drive the strategy in agile organizations.

First, you need to get organized as an EA team within the agile organization; you need to know how the architecture ceremonies fit into the existing agile ceremonies to create the optimal collaboration with the other teams. Is there a way to develop architectures in a lean-agile way, or is it typically an activity that needs to be done upfront?

In the INNOCOM agile architecture masterclass, you will learn to build and document your architecture just enough. In addition, you will also learn how to develop and manage the architecture roadmap with integrated quality and security in an agile context.

One of this program’s unique characteristics is that INNOCOM will demonstrate its unique framework and approach to agile architecture based on many best practices and, most of all, many years of practical experience. You will learn to apply agile architecture in practical exercises. As a result, you will be ready and able to make a difference in your company.
