Caspar and Russell are back behind the mics to launch Season 4 of the BPM 360 Podcast. After a summer of sun, paint brushes, and a bit of Raspberry Pi miswiring, the duo jump straight into how real-life lessons connect to the world of BPM. From DIY cellar ventilation gone wrong to reflections on process modeling conventions, they explore the balance between careful preparation and agile adaptation that every transformation journey requires.

🔑 Key Takeaways

• Human vs. AI & Automation: Russell shares a hands-on DIY story about automating his damp cellar with a Raspberry Pi — a reminder that being meticulous (and double-checking polarity!) matters in both tech tinkering and process management.
• Preparation vs. Speed: Caspar draws parallels between painting a house and BPM initiatives — either start fast and risk rework, or invest in conventions and structure early for long-term speed.
• BPM Then and Now: The hosts reflect on BPM’s evolution: from static compliance-driven process maps in the 90s to today’s dynamic, living models enriched by process mining and data.
• The Flexibility Paradox: Process management must balance clear methods and standards with adaptability to change — too much rigidity stifles agility, too little undermines quality.
• Looking Ahead: Season 4 promises inspiring guests (from academia, industry, and practice), deeper dives into EPC vs. BPMN, and the big question of whether modeling conventions are evolving into something more fluid and data-driven.
