The phrase "agile business architecture" seems to be popping up more and more. "Experts" out there are calling what they now do and teach "agile" business architecture.

What does this "agile" architecture mean? We answer this question in the video below. Putting the adjective "agile" in front of the already misrepresented and ambiguous phrase "business architecture" doesn't make the discipline and practice more effective.

We do not believe that "agile" business architecture can even be a real thing! It is the output of TRUE business architecture that would enable business "agility" – which is really the desired outcome! A very big difference.

BACOE business architecture results in capabilities that enable "agility" within organizations. Giving your business what it needs to win over competitors and have a sustainable competitive advantage.

It does seem that adding the adjective "agile" to Business architecture makes it now different than previous methods, teachings, courses, or "certifications." This would imply, using the antonym of "agile" that, what they were doing before was dull and slow, and what they are doing now, "agile" business architecture, is quick and nimble.

What does that say about the previous approach these "experts" called “business architecture”?
