Talk:Business architect

I would like to change the description of a Business architect so it does not refer to technology. Business architecture practice is evolving it is becoming less about technology and more about the nature, form, and function of solely the business iteslf. See for example the webex Bridging Business Analysis and Business Architecture (Australia)https://opengroupevents.webex.com/mw0307l/mywebex/default.do?siteurl=opengroupevents. Business architecture fundamentally is about describing the elements and their relationships within a business which make up the internal working of the business and enabling an organization to better execute its strategy by creating shared understanding, etc. As such it can and often only operates within the business layer, and deals only with business concerns. That being said it most definitely can provide context to what needs to happen within other layers.

This entry is also not consistent with the Wikipedia entry on "Business Architecture" which is very business oriented and describes business architecture as the bridge between the enterprise business model and enterprise strategy on one side, and the business functionality of the enterprise on the other side. Clearly if a business architect act as the "bridge between the enterprise business model and enterprise strategy on one side, and the business functionality of the enterprise on the other side" this need have nothing to do with technology

This article had zero references and was too technology-centric. With recent updates to Business architecture page this page was essentially rewritten. References were provided and it should be more aligned with the business architecture page. Voywiki (talk) 22:28, 31 January 2015 (UTC)
