The Problem
To groom the high potentials from different domains into architects who can deliver excellence by continually improving processes and systems, aiding in creating value for stakeholders. Additionally, the challenge was to develop talent in the organization, showcase a growth path and coach others and develop soft skills to understand customer challenges.
The Solution
In collaboration with StackRoute, the company embarked on a meticulously structured three-phased Architect’s Competence Development Program. This architecture development program was designed to transform professionals into future-ready architects who could lead the design and implementation of complex systems:
- Market Dynamics and Technology Landscape: The first phase introduced participants to current market trends and emerging technologies, equipping them with the knowledge to foresee and react to changes in the tech landscape.
- Deep Dive into Architectural Knowledge: The second phase focused on deepening their expertise in various architectural domains.
- Application and Leadership: The final phase challenged participants to apply their knowledge in practical settings, fostering skills in articulating architectural visions and roadmaps, and making strategic decisions that align with business goals.
The Impact
The Architect’s Competence Development Program significantly impacted the organization by:
Improved articulation to address cross cutting concerns and take architectural decisions.
Improved application of modern digital technology
Improved understanding of the technologies, tools, frameworks, patterns from the perspective of architecture domains
The success of this initiative not only met the immediate needs of the company but also positioned it as a leader in nurturing architectural talent, capable of driving future innovations. This program's effectiveness was underscored by receiving the Bronze Brandon Hall Award in 2022 (Best Advance in Measuring the Impact of a Talent Strategy) , recognizing its impact in reimagining the company's talent strategy.
