Title: The Strategic Positioning of Enterprise Architecture Department
 
Enterprise Architecture (EA) has traditionally been viewed as an IT-centric initiative focused on managing IT assets and operational efficiency. Often reporting to CIOs, its scope has been limited to enterprise-wide IT decisions rather than shaping the architecture of the enterprise itself.
 
This narrow focus has overshadowed the strategic potential of EA to serve as a critical driver of enterprise-wide goals. EA has the capability to act as the architecture of the enterprise, providing insights to CEOs, department heads, and decision-makers that ensure enterprise longevity and efficiency.
 
This session explores how EA can transition from its IT-centric origins to becoming a strategic pillar for enterprise success.
