LeanIX Connect Summit EMEA 2022

Hear from Beiersdorf on how they replaced centralized EA with a new holistic approach

In this LeanIX Connect Summit session, Janosch Dolber, Enterprise Architect at Beiersdorf, and Rolf B. Blankenmayer, Senior Manager at Accenture, reveal how Beiersdorf tore down the ivory tower of traditional EA and reimagined domain architects as co-facilitators and change agents.

Watch now to learn how they created a distributed, community-focused practice, and hear about the challenges they had to overcome.

“Rather than defining ourselves as the overseers of a doctrinaire target architecture, we see ourselves as trusted advisors and change agents within an IT that transforms itself with a product-centric organization.”
