What Makes Enterprises Intelligible?
Many enterprises suffer from a paradox.
As they grow, they produce more strategies, policies, principles, repositories, dashboards, models, standards, reports, and documentation. Yet despite this increasing volume of information, they often become harder to understand.
More explanation does not necessarily lead to greater understanding.
The question, therefore, is not how much knowledge an enterprise possesses.
The question is whether that knowledge can be used.
In my latest article, I explore Enterprise Intelligibility as a practical architectural discipline rather than merely a diagnostic concept.

An enterprise becomes intelligible when knowledge is built so agents can use it for situated understanding and coherent action.
