Summary: The Power of Leadership
Review: In this book Mr. Spanyi's thought leadership is some of the clearest and timeliest I have ever encountered in a business publication. An expert himself, he has (happily) the expert's ability to reduce complex subject matter to an elegantly simple and instructive message. I recommend this book above all others to anyone who may be curious about what it means to be entrepreneurial in the 21st century, which is to say, everyone who must consider their business in light of customer requirements.

Summary: Business Process Management
Review: The recent history of business publications has seen a plethora of ideas for addressing the dual challenges of accelerating change of pace and complexity of operation. In his book, Spanyi clearly presents his ideas on how to successfully create and implement Business Process Management (BPM) on an enterprise-wide basis for current and future business success.He restates and drives home the eternal truth of developing a strategic plan and using business process thinking to get company wide buy-in. He details and explains mistakes of the past and presents his BPM approach as a blueprint for future success. His ideas for implementing strategic cross-functional process design and elimination of traditional barriers such as turf wars are as intellectually stimulating as they are practical and represent a potential formula for success.

Summary: Business Process Management
Review: This is a book that explains Business Process Management in business terms. The book can be introduced to someone with little or no background of BPM concepts. I have been struggling on how to package BPM to help our organization grow. Someone has finally put together a nicely written, short book that can be completed in a few hours on the first read. I would suggest reading this book two or three times and Business Process Management the Third Wave before presenting this to your organization/company. The move from functionally based stovepipe organizations, departments, applications and systems is in the very near future. I would consider this book to be the cliff notes or readers digest version of Business Process Management the Third Wave written by Howard Smith and Peter Fingar (A MUST FOR ANYONE SERIOUS ABOUT BPM).

Summary: A Book You can Use!
Review: We know that to be successful, our organizations have to become "customer driven" and that means improving our business processes across the enterprise. But business processes are boring, and so are most business books. This one is an exception.
Mr. Spanyi makes a strong case that if people collaborate better, the organization can reach its goals - despite the tough economy.
Want to attain that "shared thinking" so necessary in cross-functional teams? This book provides real advice that any business person can use. Best of all, its clear and concise. So, if you are faced with improving the performance of your organization, I highly recommend this book.
