Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
Does it seem you’ve formulated a rock-solid strategy, yet your firm still can’t get ahead? If so, construct a solid foundation for business execution—an IT infrastructure and digitized business processes to automate your company’s core capabilities. In Enterprise Architecture as Strategy: Creating a Foundation for Business Execution, authors Jeanne W. Ross, Peter Weill, and David C. Robertson show you how.
The key? Make tough decisions about which processes you must execute well, then implement the IT systems needed to digitize those processes. Citing numerous companies worldwide, the authors show how constructing the right enterprise architecture enhances profitability and time to market, improves strategy execution, and even lowers IT costs. Though clear, engaging explanation, they demonstrate how to define your operating model—your vision of how your firm will survive and grow—and implement it through your enterprise architecture. Their counterintuitive but vital message: when it comes to executing your strategy, your enterprise architecture may matter far more than your strategy itself.

It was highly prized by a co-worker.
Therefore, I assume that it's just not my type of reading:
barely dragged myself to the midstream and drowned there.
Try to sample it first.
Hope that helps.

The book is really great and deserves 5 stars.
I am an Application Architect working for one of the biggest financial companies in the world and we are using this book as a starting point for improving our Enterprise Architecture.
I whish this book was thicker or maybe had a second volume.

Well, I had some problem with the shipping. The very first book was lost. But Amazon was able to send me quickly a new one. It's arrived perfectly on time, sane and safe. It's a very good book with contents and suggestions

"The IT strategists at MIT CISR present an exceptionally clear and well constructed book, Enterprise Architecture as Strategy: Creating a Foundation for Business Execution. It extends Jeanne Ross' earlier work in IT Governance by bringing the emerging concepts of Enterprise Architecture out of the rarefied domain of IT theory into the realm of general business strategy."
