Solutions Architect | Contractor

Trying to maximise the amount of work NOT done is how I spend a good chunk of my #solutionsarchitect time these days. I find re-imagining the Problem Space often delivers the best results. There are always plenty of imposters masquerading as immutable 'business requirements' that would otherwise translate to unnecessary work. Be aware of problems being introduced by 'solutions' and you will discover further opportunities to improve. Superficial understanding limits effectiveness. Work proactively and acquire the right knowledge to inform. I find good engineers can pretty much make any approach/solution work so don't overly sweat the tech-stuff. Use your time wisely to deliver the most value. IT Business Alignment is a two-way street. I often see problems that 'tech' are trying to tackle that are better addressed as 'business' problems. It takes the right environment for everyone to do their best work. If you find yourself in a good one, treasure it. Stay well folks. #lazyarchitect
