2565 - Tools & Techniques of Business Process Management
Course Description
Managing or improving processes to meet business needs and objectives requires an understanding of process metrics, including what drives them and how to analyze them, to uncover the often underappreciated opportunities for improvement available in all processes. But managing processes involves much more than crunching the numbers: it’s also about recognizing the capacity of your people to do the work and what motivates them to do it well. This course provides a thorough and unified introduction to both the power of metrics and the influence of people on process performance.
Learning Outcomes
