It has been a little bit more quiet for a few weeks since I have been on summer vacation with the family at Lake Garda. – What a lovely place on earth!
Nevertheless, I used the time in Italy to let the New Process Booster ripen further, so I can finally open the registration now! 🙂
I still remember the times when no one wanted to take ownership of processes and processes took on a life of their own apart from the actual business. Process ownership was a responsibility that no one wanted and that was not valued at all. Does that sound familiar to you?
