Current State & Target State Architecture
All levels — SA, EA, TS4-5 hoursAs-is / to-be architecture canvas + transition state design + maturity scale + AI readiness assessment

How to document what exists today, define what must exist tomorrow, and design the transition states that get you there — the discipline of architecture that connects present reality to future goals.

...— does this gap block a strategic outcome? Risk — does this gap create compliance, operational, or security risk? Dependencies — do other gaps depend on this being resolved first? Cost — how expensive...

Fitness Functions Instead of Review Boards
Enterprise Architects, CTOs, Review Board Members, Engineering Leaders3-4 hoursA three-tier fitness function plan — your first three invariants automated, and the board agenda they retire

Batch review cannot govern continuous change. How to encode architectural invariants as automated checks — and what still belongs to the board.

...would be a mistake. Strategic trade-off discussions. When two architectural properties conflict — security versus latency, consistency versus availability, speed versus modularity — a human must resolve...
