"“There's a lot of trial and error in new technology,” said Andrew Allan, senior vice president of financial operations for the CIO's office at Siemens. “What do you want it to do? How do you want to embrace it?” Yet, at the same time, Allan said he does not see AI replacing technology professionals' skills anytime soon at his company."
"“Business architects, who blend technology expertise with business acumen, are emerging as the ideal professionals to lead organizations through the complex world of AI.” Along with hybrid business and tech skills, professionals seeking to advance in today's and tomorrow's economy need to demonstrate “a tenacious spirit and a tenacious personality.”"
"“who have deep knowledge of the complexities of the business, and the problems we're trying to solve, and be able to translate that back to a technological solution,” said Allan. Combined technology and business skills are in high demand at Siemens, a sprawling conglomerate that produces and sells digital and automation solutions to a range of heavy industries."
Siemens emphasizes human guidance of AI and the need for professionals who can steer organizations through an AI-saturated environment. Business architects are emerging as key roles because they combine business understanding with technology expertise to translate business problems into technological solutions. Technology implementations are not once-and-done; they require trial and error, with clear goals for what systems should do and how they should be embraced. Siemens seeks people with deep knowledge of business complexities and the problems being solved, along with tenacious spirit and personality. The company also expects professionals to manage sprawling agent networks as AI capabilities expand.
