This book helps (aspiring) architects embrace a new view of what it means to be an architect and equips them to ride the architect elevator across many levels, aligning organization and technology and effecting lasting change.

This book is based on my daily experiences of two decades in IT, which led me through being a startup cofounder (lots of fun, not lots of money), system integrator (made tax audits more efficient), consultant (lots of PowerPoint), author (collecting and documenting insights), internet software engineer (building the future), chief architect of a large multinational organization (tough, but rewarding), and CTO advisor (lots of insights and sharing). I felt that taking a personal account of IT transformation might be appropriate because architecture is by nature a somewhat personal business. When looking at a famous building, you can easily identify the architect from afar. White box: Richard Meier; all crooked: Frank Gehry; looks like made from fabric: Zaha Hadid. Although not quite as dramatic, every (chief) IT architect also has their personal emphasis and style that’s reflected in their works.
