Description:This is the eBook version of the printed book.

However, there hasn’t been a lens that not only enables, but encourages people to rethink not just their own work, but their entire operating model in their business ecosystem.

Process views can oft en traverse the artificial boundaries that are sometimes implied or created with the workflow view.
