Proven Techniques for Creating Organizations of the Highest Quality at the Lowest Cost while Improving Response Time
If you have ever felt that improving your organization and the way you conduct business is a daunting task, then this book is for you. This practical and often entertaining guide is designed to clarify BPR approaches and prepare you and your team to act as change agents for your organizatin. Following the book's step-by-step instructions, illustrations, examples, and tip-giving sidebars, readers will learn how to achieve their true organizational goals, examine how the organization actually functions (or does not function!), and then design a direct course of action for realizing those goals.

"As we make our work fundamentally different, as we reengineer, what most often happens is that we give back more accountability to our people and more responsibility and I believe actually make their work more interesting."

-James Champy, The BusinessTech Interview, 1997

In this book you will find:
  • The four simple questions you must answer to start your BPR project.
  • How BPR started and how it relates to you.
  • The human factors that must be considered before you start your project.
