Business Analysis

The Place of Business Architects in Enterprise Design

• 66% of HR and IT organizations develop strategic plans that are not linked to the enterprise strategy.

Sources: the first 2 bullets are derived from The Strategy-to-Execution Process: A Critical Component of Transient Competitive Advantage in the European Business Review on November 7, 2013 and the last bullet is derived from various additional studies made by Towers Watson, Harvard Business Review, and McKinsey & Co.

Today’s Business Disconnects

• 95% of employees in most organizations do not understand their organisation’s strategy

• Only 25% to 30% of business transformation initiatives are successful over the long term
