What's Your Baseline? Enterprise Architecture & Business Process Management Demystified

Ep. 76 - BPM/EA Misconceptions: Caspar Jans & Russell Gomersall


Listen Later

Oh, why do I need a special EA/BPM tool? I am managing my apps in a spreadsheet just fine. That is one of the misconceptions that I have heard over the last twenty-something years of me helping clients to stand up practices and increase their EA/BPM maturity. And there are tons more of those ...

Well, our first guest doesn't need an introduction since he has been on the show already: Caspar Jans. But for those of you who don't know him, he is not only working in the BPM space for decades but is also the co-host of the BPM360 Podcast, being recognized as a Top 50 voice in operational excellence by the PEX / Process Excellence Network in 2023, and he writes a newsletter on LinkedIn.

Our second guest is Russell Gomersall, who is the other co-host of the BPM360 Podcast and is a Senior Partner at bpExperts GmbH. His expertise lies in developing and applying the BusinessFlows-MetamodeI, bpExperts proprietary method for process-centric business transformations, and leading the TechLab, their competence center for technology-driven process optimization. Russell also act as the Chief Cheerleader and Value Owner of Passion, one of his core values, and fosters a culture of enthusiasm, engagement, and collaboration among bpExpert's team and customers.

In this episode of the podcast we are talking about (and I am not sure if we used all of the misconceptions below, but so be it):

  • Russell's and Caspar's backgrounds
  • Architecture Usage
  • Projects
  • What is all the fuzz about this stuff?
  • How to use the tools / the discipline
  • Skills
  • Caspar is easy to reach on LinkedIn and also has a website that contains his writings (and his newsletter "Process Extraordinaire Weekly" on LinkedIn here). Russel can be found on LinkedIn here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/russellgomersall/.

    You can find their podcast BPM360 wherever you get your podcasts or on their website: https://www.bpm360podcast.com/.
