Episode 6: Visualizing Architecture

Описание: Enterprise Architecture is about helping people see how their organization works.

In this episode of the EA Explained series, Omar Gawad and Eric Jager dive into one of the most overlooked yet powerful aspects of architecture: visualization.

We explore how language, modeling, and visualization connect strategy, business, and technology into a shared understanding across teams.

You’ll learn:
1. Why a common modeling language bridges the gap between business and IT.
2. The consequences of not using standardized modeling approaches.
3. How catalogs, matrices, and diagrams bring structure and clarity to enterprise architecture.
4. How to avoid turning your repository into a “document graveyard.”
5. Practical advice for starting architecture practices without big tools — and still delivering value.

Whether you’re an experienced architect or just starting your EA journey, this episode will help you translate complexity into clarity through meaningful visuals and value-driven artifacts.
