I have been writing for years about Business Process Management on the M2MSys blog and it is very rewarding that, for a moment in time, Google's search algorithm considers that one of my blog entries deserves to be #1.... NICE!!!! Since I know that this situation will soon change, as other business process management experts, write about BPM books, I decided to do a screen capture, for future bragging rights.

Business Process Management is a discipline that is starting to grow very rapidly. It's no longer the domain of a few early adopters. It's slowly maturing into the next hot thing... even thought it has been like that for a while.
A quick search on the word "BPM" on Google, gives you immediately a perspective of how competitive the BPM market is.
