Surviving Strategy and Architecture

This book is about how to survive and thrive in the highly rewarding, but emotionally taxing, world of technology strategy and architecture.

This book is not specifically about strategy or architecture, it is about you, the strategist or architect. More specifically it is about you, the human being.

We often talk about diversity in our corporations, yet we seem to be slow to embrace diversity of knowledge and wisdom.
This book aims to bring you selected wisdom from around the East and West that is woven into the context of strategy and architecture. These are combined with a few classic and contemporary psychological concepts. Added to this are my (this is a conversation) strategy and architecture observations and insights from the many generous people that have impacted my career.

My hope is that by reading this book you will be a more successful strategist or architect. However, my deepest motivation is that you might become a happier one with more satisfaction, understanding, and contentment in your journey, wherever it might take you.
