Architectural Thinking by Mark Richards

Many technologists have an architect title, take on the role of an architect, or even aspire to be an architect, but are they thinking like an architect? Architectural thinking is learning to look at a problem or task from an architect's point of view. In this talk I discuss how to think like an architect - how to understand, recognize, and analyze tradeoffs, how to think in terms of business drivers, and how important technical breadth is to architectural thinking.
