Don't Rush to Technology

I believe that too many organizations rush to technological solutions to their problems.  The technology can help, but depending on the problem, it will not be a complete solution to the original problem.  It is important for the organization to understand the problem clearly and completely.  For example, I believe that an enterprise architecture is an important undertaking for most organizations and there are many technological tools that facilitate the capture, storage, retrieval, and correlation of enterprise architecture information.  The question is: what exactly is the problem that the organization wishes to solve by developing its enterprise architecture?  When the problem is well-understood, the best decision will be made.  It might be appropriate for an organization to first make behavioral changes without technology and let the new behaviors become well established before introducing new technology.
