To meet the changing expectation of businesses, the EA discipline must also evolve. In late 2017, EA Principals and the Enterprise Architecture Professional Journal conducted a survey of EA practitioners. The intent was to establish a current state view of the practice, problems and potential future of the EA discipline, in order to better understand how the discipline is changing, and how practitioners see its relevance now and in the future. This whitepaper was authored by Darryl Carr, Editor, Enterprise Architecture Professional Journal, and Dr Steven Else, CEO, EA Principals and Founder, Enterprise Architecture Professional Journal

Enterprise-architecture teams can play an integral role in transforming companies with technologies. New survey findings and firsthand experience highlight the practices that matter most. This report was authored by Sven Blumberg, Oliver Bossert, and Jan Sokalski at McKinsey & Company, and Prof Sharm Manwani at Henley Business School. This ongoing study has been conducted under a joint partnership with McKinsey & Company and Henley Business School.
