COMING SOON


In the ever-evolving landscape of digital transformation, The Composable Roadmap by Chad Solomonson and Greg Kihlström emerges as a beacon for organizations striving to navigate the complexities of modern technology architectures. This isn’t just a book; it’s a manifesto for change, a blueprint for building a future where flexibility and agility are at the heart of business operations.

Solomonson and Kihlström dissect the concept of composable systems—where businesses can swiftly adapt and reconfigure their digital assets to meet changing demands without being bogged down by legacy constraints. The beauty of this book lies in its clarity and practicality.

What sets this guide apart is its profound understanding of the intersection between marketing and IT. It’s written for the brave souls at this crossroads—the ‘bridge builders’ tasked with aligning seemingly disparate worlds to achieve a common goal. The authors provide a toolkit complete with strategies, from foundational to advanced, pushing the reader to think beyond traditional frameworks towards a more dynamic, interconnected approach.

The inclusion of real-world examples, expert insights, and actionable workshops ensures that the theoretical is always tied to the practical, making it accessible to professionals across the spectrum. However, it’s the book’s relentless focus on the ‘North Star’—that guiding vision every company needs to steer by—that truly encapsulates its essence.

The Composable Roadmap isn’t just a read; it’s a journey. It challenges you to rethink how you view your organizational capabilities and equips you with the foresight to build not just for today, but for a future that is perpetually just around the corner. For anyone serious about making agility a core competency of their organization, this book is your starting point.
