The Business Architecture Podcast

Many companies are either certified to ISO 9001, or at least have implemented the requirements. Most, don’t see or realise the complete value from it though. This is because, the standard is not written for our success - it’s written for our non-failure. Understanding this, can start to open the door to being able to grow brilliant business’ - using this great framework. Enjoy!

In this episode, I continue the journey through Organisational Culture and what it looks like moving forward. We talk about 3 pillars of culture moving forward: Learning, Ubuntu & Philosophy. These 3 pillars will be a part of powerful culture moving forward, based on the context of the ages we are moving into. This also starts to highlight how we collaborate management and leadership, to increase the effectiveness of an organisation.

In this episode, I start a conversation about what the future of work could look like. I present a theory of the future of work and the clash of 2 opposing ages. I also talk about how the future of organisations will go through a ‘cleansing phase’ where organisations that don’t evolve with the change of age will start to fade and a new emergent elite group of Organisations will establish themselves. Will you be in that elite group? Let’s start the conversation now!

In this episode we start to go further into the heart of the organisation (culture) and how to bring it to life. I talk more about the Management Split - which is the difference between the old style (authority) and the new style (responsibility) of business management & leadership. The intention here is to start connecting ‘how the modern organisation works’ with ‘our ability to manage an organisation’ so that we can build bigger, better, faster, harder and stronger organisations of the modern day! This episode is in series with a few other episodes that go through quite a few elements that work together - so sit back and enjoy!

In this episode we dive further into building a winning culture. I go over the biological references to the modern day business and how we start to use that to shape what a culture could be. A lot of what used to work needs to be updated, so this is the second episode of a few that will be all about this!

In this episode, I take some time to dive a little more into culture - what it is and what the start of what it takes to build a winning culture moving forward. The way we used to do it is suffice for what was, but isn’t for what is - so how do we begin building winning cultures? This is the first of a few episodes on this, because it is a complex topic!

In this flash cast episode, I go over a highly effective and simple strategy that anyone can implement - Going the extra mile. I talk about what it really means and offer some simple ideas that you can execute quickly to really get on the front foot!

In this episode, Kevin breaks down the entire Business Architecture Map (aka Business System). We go over the 5 key assets and how they each fit in + the role that they each play and truly building a great business. We go further into building Brand, Philosophy, Positioning, Product, Sales, Fulfilment - and how to build the foundations of referrals.
