Cand IT - IT & Enterprise Architect @ IBM & Reviewer @ WMSCI
Copenhagen Area, Denmark
As an IT professional on Enterprise architecture, I focus on aligning IT with the strategic intent of the enterprise. I posses a great theoretical background on areas, like EA, SOA, (IT-) Strategy, BPM, Maturity, Change management, Standards, IT architecture, Economic incentives, eGov and Im a horizontal believer. The above mentioned knowledge I see as a valid background / fundament for applying in a non-theoretical context, e.i. consulting. In the future, my goal is to maintain and expand on this described valuable knowledge in order to be able to consult clients intelligent and creating value.
Academia: My goal is to interact in the academic branch, by doing theoretical and empiric work especially on the area of Enterprise Architecture. Further I keep track with news and debate current topics in my blog (see below)
