Simplicity and Separation of Concern

"One of the most degenerative tendencies of the last forty years is the belief that if you are understandable, you are vulgar." by Peter Drucker

"Insecure managers create complexity. Frightened, nervous managers use think, convoluted planning books and busy slides filled with everything they've known since childhood. Real leaders don't need clutter. People mush have the self-confidence to be clear, precise, to be sure that every person in their organization - highest to lowest - understands what the business is trying to achieve. But it is not easy.You cannot believe how hard it is for people to be simple, how much they fear being simple. They worry that if they are simple, people will think they are simple minded. In reality, of course, it is just the reverse. Clear, tough-minded people are the most simple." by Jack Welch.

I 100% agreed about Jack Welch's last expression; "Clear minded people are the most simple".
Software architect is one of very hard occupation in the world, I think.
There are too many constraints in the company and technology and too many uncertainties in the business policy. However, software architect should make architectural decision and meet many different business objectives. And architectural decision should be reasonable, objective, and meet stake holder's totally different views; CEO wants numbers, CTO wants reliability, developers want codes, designers want lots of diagrams.....Although this complex and different perspectives, software architect make "simple" architectural decision. Simple architecture is the key for architectural decision. I paraded Yoda's saying in the movie "Star Wars", "May the force be with you."; My favorites :-) !!!
