Learn to secure and sustain organizational acceptance of SOA
Our experience assisting organizations across industries with SOA reveals common patterns. Few organizations appreciate the organizational change implications of SOA. Even fewer incorporate change management as part of their overall SOA effort. The outcomes are not surprising. Pilot successes are not sustained. IT fails to gain business support. Powerful stakeholders are frustrated. Service silos proliferate. Service reuse remains elusive. Purchased infrastructure is not deployed. Mounting resistance, finger pointing, and politics sabotage SOA governance. Results fall way short of expectations.
As one CIO stated ‘The technical stuff is easy – I wish we could take people out of the equation’. Alas, that is not possible. SOA imposes new ways of thinking, being and doing. Using a combination of lectures and hands-on exercises, this workshop will explore what needs to change and what needs to be in place for a smooth SOA implementation. You will also learn how to use an analytical tool to identify desirable SOA behaviors and how to anchor the behaviors in mindset, culture and systems.
Key issues:
- Change implications of SOA
- Foundational pillars for successful change
- Identifying desirable behaviors and associated mindset, culture and system factors
- Keys to reinforcing and sustaining organizational acceptance of SOA
