Keeping it Real!
Wonderful way of looking at it :-D
1. Understanding the impact of an ever changing business environment on your process activities enables a company to react quickly.
2. Clearly defining accountabilities and responsibilities eliminates duplication of effort and cuts down on the bureaucracy and politics involved with change.
