Successful organizational change strategy includes analyzing the 5 disciplines of Planning for change, taking Leadership of change, Managing change, change Maintenance and finally change Portfolio Management.

Stakeholders like consumers, suppliers and employees are continuously evolving and the business architecture must support business strategy which consciously implements Big Change processes and Small Change projects to keep the organization aligned to the customer.

Architecting the Business for Change:

1.      Working out ways to improve organizational agility.
2.      Business strategy should incorporate changes in the marketplace.
