What is the Business Process Critical Capabilities course about?
Teams invest heavily in process design only to see adoption lag, controls weaken, or integration fail, often because foundational critical capabilities aren’t mapped, resourced, or governed effectively. Without a structured way to assess and implement these capabilities, even well-intentioned efforts fall short of operational resilience and strategic value.
