Enterprise Mining Mark McGregor Title

Episode 48 – Enterprise Mining: Mark McGregor

We have spoken about Process Mining and data-driven decision making quite a lot on this podcast. But does it stop with mining processes? I think the next step is growing this field of data analysis to “Enterprise Mining” where the same idea will be applied to apps, data, orgs, risks, etc. And the idea is […]

Process Simulation - Title

Episode 47 – Process simulation: John Hill

We are at the next step of moving our organizations to the digital twin which will allow us to monitor “the plane” (our businesses) in real-time and compare it with the predictions of the future. This missing step is Process Simulation, a “thing” that existed for years already and was widely underused. The change though […]

Gamification - title

Episode 46 – Gamification and Performance Management

Welcome to the next episode of our podcast. Today we are talking about Gamification, a topic that we are a bit critical towards, but which seems to be here to stay (it’s a generational thing, I guess…). But the twist in this episode is how it influences the performance of your architecture or business process […]

Enterprise Architecture - Luca de Risi

Episode 45 – Why do CIOs need Enterprise Architecture: Luca de Risi

Enterprise Architects? Aren’t those the useless people who always say “no”? That is one of the perspectives we have heard about EAs in the past. But what can EAs do and how do the progress from “noisy” to “influential”? In this episode of the What’s Your Baseline? podcast we discuss the role of Enterprise Architects […]

Process Notations (and why they are not important): Walter Bril

Episode 44 – Process notations (and why they are not important): Walter Bril

When starting with process management one of the first questions is “what process notation shall I use”. In this episode of the What’s Your Baseline? podcast we discuss this question with Walter Bril, who is one of the co-inventors of the Universal Process Notation (UPN) and why it is not *really* important what notation you […]

S4E4 Title Org. Change Management

Episode 41 – Organizational Change Management: Jehane Adam

If you have listened to a couple of podcast episodes you know that we are true believers in that the biggest “problem” in any architecture, BPM, or Process Mining project is not the technology or the processes and other architecture views – it is the people! Getting people along with your change is the hardest thing to do […]

How to inspire people for process

Episode 33 – How to inspire people for process: Mirko Kloppenburg

We talk (a lot) about technology and processes here on the podcast. But what about the human side of Business Process Management? Do we just forget them and aim for the desired outcome no matter what? No, we don’t … In this episode of the What’s Your Baseline podcast we speak with Mirko Kloppenburg, who started […]

Security Architecture Title

Episode 31 – Security architecture: Rick Smith

Updating the “plumbing” is not sexy. Looking at measures being put in place to avoid the worst case or deal with it when it happens is not fancy. Educating people and reminding them on being alert is exhausting. However, the topic of Security and Security Architecture is one of the most important things to do, […]

Quality Excellence Title

Episode 28 – Quality Excellence: Wings Liang

A few months ago we had an initial look at how to manage and implement change in our conversation with Caspar Jans (in Episode 16) and we are continuing that series with an excellent conversation with Wings Liang about Quality Excellence and how organizations need to “shift left” and can gain competitive advantage by changing their perspective. Wings helps […]

Communicating the value of architecture

Episode 26 – Communicating the value of architecture: Laurie Kelly

One of the biggest problems of architecture groups was (is?) that they are doing good work, but that will not be recognized by others. One of the causes for that is that their repository and artifacts have almost no visibility outside of their group. To mitigate this situation, we are speaking with Laurie Kelly about […]
