🔥 Small tweaks… or a total revolution? When is it time to stop polishing an old system and start over with a completely new one?
In this Deep Dive, we explore Business Process Re-Engineering (BPR) — the radical 1990s management philosophy that told companies: “Don’t just improve… reinvent.” 🚀
📌 What you’ll learn in this episode:
Why BPR rejected small, incremental changes in favor of fundamental, radical, and dramatic redesigns
How Michael Hammer & James Champy’s Reengineering the Corporation became a rallying cry for corporate transformation
The biggest criticisms of BPR: job losses, cultural resistance, and high failure rates
The benefits advocates saw: stronger leadership, more empowered roles, clearer strategy, better processes, happier customers, and dramatic turnarounds
How the spirit of BPR still lives on today in digital transformation, agile methods, and AI adoption
💡 Key takeaway: Sometimes improvement means optimizing what you already have. But sometimes… true progress requires tearing down the old playbook and starting with a blank sheet of paper.
👉 As you watch, ask yourself: Where in your work or life are you just making tweaks? And where might it take real courage to reimagine everything from scratch?
