Well Architected MindGraph

I have leveraged mind maps throughout my career. Simon Wardley points out that they are not real maps. So I now call them mindgraphs :-).

I have used Well Architected mindgraph heavily in my own work over the past few years to ask better questions and with the addition of the sustainability questions that will continue.

The xmind format of the Mindgraph is available here, PNG version here
