Vicarious Learning -
BPM’s 10th Anniversary Challenge
A doubly-auspicious occasion: the annual BPM Award Winners are feted and this is the 10th Anniversary of BPM. A toast to all of you!
We have added two new categories to the BPM Awards (Sales & Marketing and Corporate Communications) and we present Grand Awards to companies who have won the most awards in the past nine years.
Arguably, learning from one’s own experience is at least as valuable as learning from others’ experience. BPM brings together the best of both worlds of learning: the learning of ‘experiencers’ – in this case, the winners of the 2009 BPM Awards – with those keen to apply best practices tested by others, knowing that designing and implementing best practices is both time- and energy-consuming.
So, save time and learn from them! No leaders can afford these days NOT to improve their own or their company’s performance by translating these Award Winners’ strategies into their context the valuable deas presented in this issue.
Now for the BPM 10th Anniversary Challenge: we challenge you to read this issue, to mine 5 ideas and to apply them immediately. We invite you to write up your application in a one-page article elaborating on how you implemented the idea and what benefits you gained from doing so. We will publish the best 3 articles sent in in our February 2010 issue.
So, last but not least, congratulations to our 2009 Winners and thanks to them for letting us spread the word. Now, over to you! |
