As you may have read on my blog or even when you hear me present, I talk about how crucial soft-skills are to Enterprise Architects. In my personal opinion I think the majority of our success hinges on our ability to leverage these skills. So when I run across resources I want to make sure I share them with all of you.
While I haven’t sat in on this particular webinar, I do agree with the themes and messages this is built upon. I believe this derives from a training course called, “Elevating Enterprise Architecture” which serves as a guide to hone in on those soft-skills or in more scientific terms, EQ.
I did a full review of this course that you should check out to get a better idea on the foundations in which this webinar is built: http://www.mikethearchitect.com/2013/01/review-elevating-enterprise-architecture.html
I would highly recommend all architects check this out.
