Michael Alabi

Architecture

How he designs technology, and how he runs the team that builds it.

Hypothetical reference work that shows how he reasons about technology architecture and about leading a technology organisation: strategy, security, data, AI governance, failure, decision rights and culture. These are design exercises, not production systems.

    The CTO operating model

    How he would structure and run a technology organisation: structure at three company stages, team responsibilities, decision rights, engineering standards, delivery, KPIs and OKRs, architecture governance, incident and security management, and a high-performance culture built from mechanisms rather than slogans.
