Interview with Sasha Aganova: Optimising the Enterprise through Unified Architectures
We caught up with Sasha Aganova, the Managing Partner at Process Renewal Group, to chat about her upcoming session at the Enterprise Architecture & Business Process Management Conference Europe 2024. This exciting event, running from June 3 – 6, is a hub for industry leaders and innovators dedicated to advancing enterprise architecture and business process management.
Sasha will be presenting “Optimising the Enterprise: A Unified Approach to Enterprise, Business, and Process Architectures,” where she will share her expertise on creating a seamless framework that integrates these essential domains. Her session promises to provide attendees with valuable strategies to boost organisational efficiency and adaptability. Join us as we get a sneak peek into Sasha’s insights on enterprise optimisation and what to expect from her presentation.
Tell me a bit about yourself and your experience:
I’m an innovative business architect with over 20 years of experience leading business process modernisation across diverse global companies. My pragmatic approach focuses on fostering collaboration and alignment among architectural domains to drive strategic organisational success.
Can you give me an overview of your session at the EABPM conference?
At the EABPM conference, Joanna and I will demystify the unique purposes of business, data, application, and technology architectures. You’ll learn how to view your organisation holistically as an integrated system, pinpointing misalignments and optimisation opportunities across domains. We will share techniques for transforming disconnected groups into a unified force through elevated strategic thinking and governance.
What were some of the key challenges you faced with fostering collaboration and alignment across architectural domains within the organisation?
A key challenge I’ve faced is overcoming fractured architectural visions and siloed domains working at cross-purposes. It’s critical that architects prioritise the unified architectural vision over individual roles and titles. We must form alliances, interpreting strategy while facilitating cross-domain alignment as big-picture thinkers and gap-minders.
What can attendees expect to take away from the session?
Attendees can expect to walk away with a new enterprise architecture mindset – seeing architectures not just as models, but as practices for assessment, design, improvement, alignment, integration and governance across the organisation. You’ll gain insights to elevate your perspective from tactical to strategic leadership.
