BPM in Europe: BPM, Tomorrow’s Discussion, and the Whuffie Factor
In his final Column for BPTrends, Frits Bussemaker reflects on the past seven years of BPM in Europe. To achieve a sustainable future, Frits advocates limiting, rather than expanding, the scope of BPM which he thinks is blurring the definition of BPM. You will want to read this Column for his perspectives on the past and future of BPM. And, oh yes, for a definition of “Whuffie factor.”
