#055 Just two BPM nerds talking about nerdy BPM stuff
In this episode, I'm talking to Martin Holling again. We discuss about current BPM topics such as the implementation of AI, what's happened at KEMNA BAU since our last conversation over a year ago, which tools have made which improvements, which human-centric methods we've come across recently, and so on.
Today’s Guests:

He has been working for Siemens in various Process Management positions in Siemens’ Energy sector for nearly 20 years.
