3. Why

• The Federal Government needs Communities of Practice now more than ever to improve citizen-services through a public-private partnership of:– Open Communities,– Open Information Sharing, and– Open Technology.

12

3. Why

• Disruption: Thriving in chaos– The traditional government model has been based on

the idea that information is power and, if you keep information to yourself, you can be powerful. Today, that model seems outdated. We are discovering a new model that is based on the idea that as individuals, we can be smarter – and more powerful – by sharing information. And increasingly, technological tools allow organizations to take advantage of that intelligence network.

4.2 The Medici Effect

• “The Medicis were a banking family in Florence who funded creators from a wide range of disciplines. Thanks to this family and a few others like it, sculptors, scientists, poets, philosophers, financiers, painters, and architects converged on the city of Florence. There they found each other, learned from one another, and broke down barriers and cultures. Together they forged a new world based on new ideas – what became known as the Renaissance.”– Frans Johansson, The Medici Effect, Harvard

Business School Press, 2006, pages 2-3.

16

4.2 The Medici Effect

• The Medici Effect:– “When you step into an intersection of fields,

disciplines, or cultures, you can combine existing concepts into a large number of extraordinary ideas.” (recall slide 19)

– “We have met teams and individuals who have searched for, and found, intersections between disciplines, cultures, concepts, and domains. Once there, they have the opportunity to innovate as never before, creating the Medici Effect.”

• Frans Johansson, The Medici Effect, Harvard Business School Press, 2006, page 186.

17

4.3 The President’s Management Agenda

• The President Urges Agencies to Work Together:– “Our success depends on agencies working as a

team across traditional boundaries to better serve the American people, focusing on citizens rather than individual agency needs … I thank agencies who have actively engaged in cross-agency teamwork, using E-Government to create more cost-effective and efficient ways to serve citizens, and I urge others to follow their lead.”

• Dick Burk’s Seven Rules for Using EA:– 1. Be proactive– 2. Reuse what is in place– 3. Demonstrate courage (see next slide)– 4. Operate collaboratively– 5. Talk business, not IT– 6. Mission drives architecture– 7. Look for assistance beyond the

organizationSeven Rules for Using EA, IDGA’s 5th Annual DOD Architectures Summit, April 11, 2007, Dick Burk, Chief Architect and Manager, Federal Enterprise Architecture Program, OMB

19


• Dick Burk’s Seven Rules for Using EA:– 3. Demonstrate courage:

• Enterprise architects are, by definition, change agents and this takes a certain amount of courage.

• Architects must be willing to accept responsibility for outcomes and influence people (in some cases "ruffle feathers") outside of their immediate span of control.

• Enterprise architects are senior leaders in their organization and should never be satisfied with merely creating good EA artifacts.
