„Whenever I needed Olivier, I could always find him. At the coffee machine. He seemed to know everyone, somehow was up-to-date with every project. And had also somehow managed to get the right people in touch with each other. More than some kind of matchmaker, Olivier steered the agenda. Made sure that the right things were being talked about, and that sensible compromises didn’t turn into regrettable errors. A polymath with an easy smile and infectious laugh. From him I not only got concrete deliverables that I needed for my IAM program, but he made sure that I understood why choices mattered. Together we made the best ones we could. Armed with his content, I was prepared to go to the rest of my stakeholders and move the conversation forward. Indulging in the occasional deep-reference esoteric joke, Olivier turns working with technology into working for people. The connections and integrations and schemas become about impacting people’s lives, not just a neat trick that the latest bitbot can do. Though he speaks the language and knows their tactics, his culture is far from the client-milking consultants and sales engineers whose interests are expressed in quarterly commissions. Our office was built around a coffee machine, architected for collaboration. Which I suppose could also describe Olivier. An open space, functionally yet playfully furnished, where the focus is on people and how they can do more together. There were a lot of politics around our work. Not too surprising, really. It is human nature, especially when dealing with big ambitions and an organisation able to finance it – should it fit the business case. Somehow Olivier managed to dive in to the fray just enough to achieve the result, while still acting at a layer above. A meta-networker and influencer, who lets the work speak for itself and the team share in the result. It was tough when Olivier left. We became rudderless for a while. Predictably our architecture agenda suffered, but we also lost a substantial connection point that had been helping us in our collective achievements. More than glue, it was like solder, passing current across a complex PCB.“

How can you retain top talent in Data Architecture?
I would go one step further. Talented (or very experienced architects) have a strong sense of what to do, going beyond frameworks and short sighted objectives. Therefore an organisation needs to embrace that and have the talented architects be able to create their own work, with the condition that it is not a paper exercise and that there is a clear path to practical implementation and creation of value.
