Process Management

Course id: 8861
Duration: 2 Day/ 5 H per day

introduction

If you don't manage your business processes, they will manage you. You need to understand them to manage them. Discover how some organisations accomplish this - by identifying and documenting their business processes. Many organisations tend to operate with a traditional functional management style. This is a top down style where information flows from top to bottom. This management style becomes problematic because it can lead to “one dimensional” management, inefficient use of organisational resources, and overall poor performance. In this workshop, participants learn and practice concepts, techniques and tools of the process-based management.
