about Leo de Sousa

Enterprise Architecture in Higher Education – a practical approach is a blog written by Leo de Sousa.

Hello, my name is Leo de Sousa. My career of over 25 years has been spent in IT; starting in 1986 in health care, 1989 in forestry and since 1992 in higher education. In 2005, I began the development and creation of an Enterprise Architecture strategic practice at my organization. In 2007, I took on the responsibility to lead an applications team of 24 systems analysts. In 2012, I joined a university in the United Arab Emirates as the Director of Information Technology.

I actively participate in Higher Education IT beyond my day job by regularly speaking/educating at provincial, national and international conferences as well as representing my organization in strategic partnerships with Higher Education institutions and vendors. Recently, I began running workshops on EA and ITSM, let me know if you want more information on some of the things that I cover.

I will be posting and sharing our work in Leadership, Enterprise Architecture and IT Service Management here. I invite you to provide comments, input and feedback. Enterprise Architecture requires a team effort to be successful. I sincerely hope you want to be part of the team! Let’s make a difference together.

I look forward to hearing from you.
