Chris Potts works with executives and CIOs in industry-leading companies around the world, formulating and executing the new generation of corporate strategies for exploiting IT. He delivers public seminars that are founded on his own breakthrough work with clients, and has provided training to some of the worlds leading consultancies.
Potts weaves another story of drama and intrigue which is a must
read for any CEO or Enterprise Architect looking to design a
business to achieve sustainable performance. As Enterprise
Architects continue to discover their relevance and value-add,
Potts lives up to his reputation by interrupting with a dose of
common sense and challenging insights which will make business
leaders pause and reflect.Chris ParkerSenior Vice President and
CIO, LeasePlan Corporation Just as the CIO has gained new
responsibilities for more closely extracting business value from IT
investments, the Enterprise Architect has acquired new and more
strategic responsibilities for designing architectures which must
also add value to the business. Chris Potts has once again laid out
a needed roadmap for another critical IT function as it transitions
from purely infrastructure design to a strategic executive
partnership, advising the top management team on the shape and
evolution of the architecture for the enterprise. It is his advice
that comes none too soon as budgets are constantly decreasing, and
we face increasing pressure from the creative destructive power of
technological evolution. And Chris does it in his inimical
story-telling approach that makes the comprehension of the concepts
so accessible and fun. You feel like you are reading a thriller
soon to be made into a movie. The book should be required reading
for the CEO and all members of the executive team. Bravo, Chris!
