Prioritise Stakeholder Engagement as Core Work
How should architects justify and prioritize time spent on stakeholder communication and understanding?
View stakeholder management and communication as an integral, non-negotiable part of an architect’s core responsibilities, essential for aligning perspectives and ensuring successful change. This time is not discretionary but fundamental to the role. It is as critical as any technical design task.
