I’m a business architect

2020-02-26 10:07:19 UTC  

But boy do I hate it when salespeople say it to my face

2020-02-26 10:07:32 UTC  

(Which is still a bullshit role)

2020-02-26 10:07:42 UTC  

It ain't the hottest shit under the sun, it is a fucking second grade stove

2020-02-26 10:08:00 UTC  

Business architect? A man who draws plans of houses but does so in a sharp suit? <:thinkgon:560211224923734026>

2020-02-26 10:08:03 UTC  

I admire some sales people

2020-02-26 10:08:30 UTC  

I admire their relentless lack of shame

2020-02-26 10:08:35 UTC  

Want to say one was my mentor but that isn't the right word

2020-02-26 10:08:43 UTC  

I mean, the ability to upsale anything to anyone is an impressive skill

2020-02-26 10:08:54 UTC  

But how much of it is essentially a con job?

2020-02-26 10:09:36 UTC  

"Business Architect" - sounds suspiciously like a bullshit progressive globalist role

2020-02-26 10:09:48 UTC  

Business architect sounds good but you can smell the bs

2020-02-26 10:10:01 UTC  

That's the point though so

2020-02-26 10:10:09 UTC  

it's a glorified systems analyst, by the looks

2020-02-26 10:10:18 UTC  

I'd rather sit in a pile of specs, sifting the driest technical data and breaking my mind in half on a technical lingo to find the thing I desire in a good quality.
I want to understand a thing before i buy.

2020-02-26 10:10:57 UTC  

Thus after spending so much time "educating myself" I can start to see through the sales pitch bullshit, and it irks me

2020-02-26 10:11:02 UTC  

It rubs me so wrong

2020-02-26 10:11:05 UTC  

Is being a systems analyst a bad thing though

2020-02-26 10:11:10 UTC  

Business architect is an old role

2020-02-26 10:11:16 UTC  

it's necessary, sam, but i personally can't stand it

2020-02-26 10:11:16 UTC  

In the old waterfall world

2020-02-26 10:11:26 UTC  

Basically a senior business analyst

2020-02-26 10:11:31 UTC  

The one person I know who is one is insufferable so

2020-02-26 10:11:36 UTC  

But it’s pretty dumb in agile world now

2020-02-26 10:11:54 UTC  

Is it a "business" or is it "architect" that is the actual job title?

2020-02-26 10:12:05 UTC  

1 I assume

2020-02-26 10:12:06 UTC  

Business architect

2020-02-26 10:12:09 UTC  

It is dumb

2020-02-26 10:12:27 UTC  

Architect of a business
Or a businessman in an architecture field?

2020-02-26 10:12:27 UTC  

Basically new solution is needed, I help direct it to accommodate the entire banks needs

2020-02-26 10:12:33 UTC  

And how it impacts more than just our area

2020-02-26 10:12:54 UTC  

Ah so entrprise solutions manager in other words

2020-02-26 10:13:02 UTC  

Did you actually get scooped into a manger role right from uni?

2020-02-26 10:13:07 UTC  

No

2020-02-26 10:13:09 UTC  

Business logistics and solutions consultant

2020-02-26 10:13:11 UTC  

Ah okay

2020-02-26 10:13:12 UTC  

I was on the grad scheme for 2 years

2020-02-26 10:13:21 UTC  

That's fair

2020-02-26 10:13:43 UTC  

And eh that sounds too good for what I do Uksio

2020-02-26 10:13:52 UTC  

I’m mostly PowerPoints and excel sheets

2020-02-26 10:13:57 UTC  

Exactly why they should adopt the title
