Some folks go to work and are drained before they even turn on their computer, and they cannot figure out why that is when all the aspects of the job seem to be fine — the tasks, the title, the money. What they don’t see is that the managers might be the reason, and that…
Have you noticed transformation fatigue in your organization? The feeling that you run faster and faster, and have to do more with less, while you don’t accomplish the results of the changes that you were out for? Well, one aspect of that might be that you haven’t “picked up” the folks in your organization where…
In many minds, legacy is “everything that works”. And even if that is not always true, many organizations look at their legacy systems and get a headache. How do you replace or update a set of systems that have served you so well over years or decades? That is why we are speaking with our…
Having the “Oracle of BPM” talking about BPMM Trends on the show? Yes, please. Even though our guest, Zbigniew Misiak, denies that, the role he is playing is an important one for our little industry. He is one of the few who bring together the different ideas and trends that are hot every year. We…
I had the pleasure of being on Mirko Kloppenburg’s podcast (after he had been a guest here twice, it was about time), and we spoke about successfully implementing BPM … no surprise here these days.I shared a holistic and practical approach to making BPM initiatives work — sustainably and strategically. In the episode, you’ll learn:—…
We have spoken about Task Mining in the podcast before (see below in the “Additional information” section), but I haven’t seen a lot of adoption of this technology in organizations — for multiple reasons that we will discuss. However, when we got into contact with Tuhin Chakraborty from Mimica, we could not say “no” to…
I just noticed that I never posted here officially about the book that I wrote — “Successful Architecture Implementation.” It was published on Monday last week, and I like to thank the first people who have already received their copy! I am looking forward to seeing your reviews and getting your feedback. 🙂 The last…
Another guest appearance in one of our friend’s podcasts – I was the guest in Russell’s and Caspar’s “BPM360 Podcast.” And, as expected, it was a very intriguing and entertaining conversation. Of course, the “hook” for the invite was my book “Successful Architecture Implementation” but we quickly switched to the content and concepts of the…
Another appearance on another podcast — I had the opportunity to be a guest on the “Die Prozessphilosophen” (the process philosophers) podcast. This is always fun to record in your native language, and we spoke about the new book “Successful Architecture Implementation” (no surprise), but also about the content and how process management is done…
BPM is important because everything that we do in organizations are processes. So, why don’t we agree on a common nomenclature, and educate people with a standardized curriculum? Oh, it is because the players have a vested interested in coming up with “the next best thing” and selling it to your customers? But there is…
We are trying something new here at What’s Your Baseline? — J-M turns his focus on investigative journalism and starts asking the “hard questions” (and not just the softballs that I get from him at other times) 🙂But in all seriousness — this episode of the podcast is a conversation between the two of us,…
I was late to the game when I got exposed to the concept of OKRs a few years ago. Before that, I thought that it was just another term for setting objectives, and you can dump a million of those onto your people. But there is a different approach, a much gentler approach to OKRs,…
