ProcessPad for The Visionary

A company needs somebody who has the vision of what it means to be a process-managed organization.

The basic point of ProcessPad, for business process discovery, is to capture the intellectual capital of the people who work for the organization. Ultimately, ProcessPad captures the decision points that people make.

The visionary is the person or group that recognizes the value of having ProcessPad and can continually rally people around it until it becomes engrained in the way the company works. It's that person's job to ask, "How are we going to continue improving our processes year after year?"

Frequently, it's the visionary who jumpstarts the deployment and use of ProcessPad for process discovery. Also they may recognize the value of expanding on smaller Business Process Management efforts within the company.

The visionary can come from anywhere. It may be the CIO or president; it may be the CEO or COO or general manager; it may be somebody in strategic planning; or it may be a person or group that represents a hybrid role, such as the head of a "center of excellence."
