Belief, fact resistance and analytic capabilities

As an Enterprise Architect, one of the skills you need is an analytic capability.

However, as seen the last weeks, this is a missing skill from a number of architects and self proclaimed analysts.

If you dissolve or reject information that doesn’t fit with your beliefs, there is huge risk that you draw the wrong conclusions and suggest wrong actions.

IMHO, with that mindset, you are not fit to be an architect or an analyst, and shouldn’t get at job in that role.
