Long term vision vs Short term goal
Sometimes, there exists a conflict between Long term vision and short term goal. To achieve short term goal, project team compromises with Long term vision of product/program. It looks most practical to divert from the correct path and take short cut to deliver.
Occasionally, project team wants to ignore the long term vision in order to mitigate the impact on short term goal. Project Management and Business requires solutions as early as possible. Over here, it becomes responsibility of architecture team to explain , convince, mentor, motivate, communicate, enforce and sell the correct path and produce standards & guidelines for the benefits of project in long term. It helps stakeholders to take informed decision.
A mature and motivated IT team keeps moving on correct path to achieve the Long term vision. IT team always needs support from the management and business stakeholders. Does this holds true for Enterprise SOA ?

"That man is successful who has lived well, laughed often, and loved much; who has gained the respect of the intelligent men and the love of children; who has filled his niche and accomplished his task; who leaves the world better than he found it, whether by an improved poppy, a perfect poem, or a rescued soul; who never lacked appreciation of earth's beauty or failed to express it; who looked for the best in others and gave the best he had." - Ralph Waldo Emerson
