New approaches to business transformation are emerging to address significant need and to serve as successors to reengineering, which has acquired a reputation for being slow and ineffective. These approaches require new, innovative methods that target, integrate, and rapidly implement total business solutions. This article presents one particular accelerated approach. Like other approaches, the key to success with an accelerated method is a closer blending among the business process redesign, information technology, and organization development disciplines to help clients pursue an appropriate course for dramatic business improvement. Within this method, the organization architect role plays a significant part in enhancing interdisciplinary work and accelerating business transformation. (Reprinted by permission of the publisher.)
