Writing

Essays are grouped into five threads. Pick where to start.

Enterprise architecture — On EA as a discipline: what it's for, what it isn't, and how it gets pulled out of shape.

Operating models — Target operating models, capability, and the ways structure meets reality.

Leadership and change — Behaviour, identity, and how change lands with the people it lands on.

People and organisation — Roles, hiring, and how communities form around what people do together.

The informal layer — Rhythms, rituals, and institutional memory — the layer no structure chart shows.

A book, The Fabric, is being written in parallel and released in chapters. That lives on its own page.
