Human Aspects of EA - Energy and Information flow Print E-mail

So far the TOGAF and other EA frameworks really concentrate on Technology and Business Concepts only. More and more it is becoming obvious to me that understanding and Architecting the Human-to-Human interaction and Information flows, is at the core of a Full and healthy Enterprise Architecture, because what happens between people is key to how well the Enterprise functions. Put another way, if the Events and interactions between Humans and not only between Technology can be well orchestrated, then the Enterprise will flourish and prosper. If the Humans are not collaborating then the Enterprise will not be as effective and efficient as it could be.

This Google talk for personal growth is about the Mind. This interactive talk will examine two major questions: What is the mind? and How can we create a healthy mind? We'll examine the interactions among the mind, the brain, and human relationships and explore ways to create a healthy mind, an integrated brain, and mindful, empathic relationships.

Here is one surprising finding: the vast majority (about 95%) of mental health practitioners around the globe, and even many scientists and philosophers focusing on the mind, do not have a definition of what the mind is! In this talk, well offer a working definition of the mind and practical implications for how to perceive and strengthen the mind itself—a learnable skill called mindsight. Then well build on this perspective to explore ways that the mind, the brain, and our relationships are influenced by digital information flow and also how they can be moved toward healthy functioning.

Google hosted Ken Schwaber who was one of the key people in pulling Scrum together as a way of working. Take this input and think of it in the Enterprise Architecture context. We need to be more urgent in implementing EA. Enjoy courtesy of Google.
