Episode Description
In this age of digital transformation, big data, cloud computing, and numerous other actions you may be undertaking or thinking about in your organization, one fundamental fact remains. What we in organizations are doing is processing data. Technology departments in organizations have many names nowadays. But fundamentally, they are doing what we did for the past five decades or so – processing data. We may be doing it differently with different technologies in different locations, but we are processing data. We will outline our approach to understanding an organizations processes – what we refer to as Process Mining that will lead to a Business Process Warehouse. We will review some of the benefits and challenges surrounding process understanding, and outline some field-proven approaches to obtaining these benefits. We will also outline the methodology we use in practice, to guide these efforts. Tune in for implementable practice-proven approaches – you will be glad you did!
The 2020’s Enterprise with Sam Holcman

The 2020’s Enterprise is about sorting through the internet-driven advice madness that exists in business today. The great thing about the internet is that anyone can write anything about anything. The problem with the internet is that anyone can write anything about anything! Published practices are quite different than “best practices.” This program will provide practice-based insights in business transformation, organizational transformation and technology transformation, based on real world practices. Business executives, managers, practitioners, and staff are bombarded daily with utopian solutions that more often than not deliver significantly less than promised. This show is “no jargon,” just human communication. Be treated like a “customer” not a “user.” Our philosophy is to provide you with insights that can provide true value to organizations and individuals that face today’s and tomorrow’s competitive pressures, and provide a usable takeaway from each program.
