In this episode we are mixing up the format a bit and are talking about the 10 things that we learned in 25 years of architecture and process management. Approach / strategy segment Let's talk about the bigger picture, the why and larger setup. What are the thoughts that get organizations started? Why: You’ll end up paying for it somehow.
