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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
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, […]
One misconception that many people have is that EA is just “that IT stuff”. Nothing is more false than that. If you *really* look at an enterprise, you will see that a full architecture encompasses all layers from strategy through business (processes, risks, orgs, etc.) to data, apps, and technology. But the real benefit is […]
Why are so many organizations out there that have not discovered BPM (and in extension “architecture”) as something that can help their business problems, and also set the foundation for future growth? Some reasons might lie in the niche characteristics (to avoid saying “nerdy”) of BPM and the lack of shared community and branding. That […]
It feels as if Christmas is knocking on the door and brings gifts early. Today, our friends from The Strategish Podcast released the second part of our conversation about Strategy and Architecture. And it feels just like yesterday when we had both here in Episode 80! In this new episode, we are looking at what […]
A few weeks ago, we had Caspar and Russell as guests in Episode 76. We enjoyed it so much that we decided to make it a collaboration (on their BPM360 Podcast). The result of it is your favorite podcast hosts now sitting in the hot chair on the other side. We had a blast chatting […]
GRC — three letters that scare a lot of people. So much that they like to avoid thinking of risks and compliance at all. But don’t be afraid (quite the opposite), GRC can not only be an addition to your artifacts to make them better, they can also benefit to your program by “having the […]
How do you plan your transformation? By looking out of the window or asking your two best friends? Or would it be better if you had an overview of all the things that your organization does – in the form of a process inventory? Michael is a distinguished thought leader and executive, specializing in addressing […]
