According to the ABPMP International's Guide to The BPM CBOK®, "Business Process Management (BPM) is a disciplined approach to identify, design, execute, document, measure, monitor, and control both automated and non-automated business processes to achieve consistent, targeted results aligned with an organization’s strategic goals. BPM involves the deliberate, collaborative and increasingly technology-aided definition, improvement, innovation, and management of end-to-end business processes that drive business results, create value, and enable an organization to meet its business objectives with more agility. BPM enables an enterprise to align its business processes to its business strategy, leading to effective overall company performance through improvements of specific work activities either within a specific department, across the enterprise, or between organizations."

If you are considering a career in business process management, here are some questions to consider:

• Do you enjoy a management approach focused on aligning all aspects of an organization with the wants and needs of clients? For example, one business function that BPM administrators may tackle is automating onboarding for new company employees with document approval, equipment delivery, and even team introductions.
• Do you like promoting business effectiveness and efficiency while striving for innovation, flexibility, and integration with technology? The daily work of a BPM administrator may involve using computer applications for monitoring and troubleshooting processes and tasks.

• Develop technical skills
• Grow people skills
• Develop political acumen
• Increase strategic creativity needed to meet your organization's goals
