Iโm Marlรจne Rodriguez. I help CIOs build operational resilience into complex technology estates before a breach, outage, or audit exposes blind spots. I have spent over 20 years working inside enterprise architecture. I design and operationalise frameworks, then make them usable at scale. I spent 11 years at MEGA International as Product Owner for the GRC Suite and Head of Training and Methodologies, authoring the HOPEX training used by thousands of enterprise architects worldwide. I have also delivered transformation programmes at Accenture and CSC for critical national infrastructure, Fortune 500 retailers, and global technology companies. ๐ ๐ฑ๐ฒ๐๐ฒ๐น๐ผ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐๐ฎ๐ฝ๐ฎ๐ฏ๐ถ๐น๐ถ๐๐ ๐๐น๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ถ๐๐ ๐ ๐ฒ๐๐ต๐ผ๐ฑ ๐ณ๐ฟ๐ผ๐บ ๐ฎ ๐๐ถ๐บ๐ฝ๐น๐ฒ ๐ผ๐ฏ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป.

I help CIOs build operational resilience into complex estates using the Capability Clarity Methodโan approach I developed over 20 years to help organizations see their architecture as it actually is, prove what it can withstand, and contain what will inevitably break. Recent engagements: โ Delivered capability-to-risk model in 2 weeks supporting 49% delay reduction for national air traffic authority โ Achieved zero SOX material weaknesses in 6 months for global technology company โ Created Information Architecture enabling 30% search improvement for Fortune 500 retailer What makes my work different: I translate complex EA/GRC concepts using cinematic storytelling (Star Trek, Mad Max, Stranger Things) so executives can explain architecture strategies to boards and stakeholders. Specializations: Operational resilience, GRC readiness, EA-driven transformation, incident response planning, regulatory compliance (GDPR, DORA, NIS2, SOX)
