Keep an open mind!
HERE is Pooh Bear, coming downstairs now, bump, bump, bump, on the back of his head,
behind Christopher Robin.
It is, as far as he knows, the only way of coming
downstairs, but sometimes he feels that there really is
another way, if only he could stop bumping for a moment
and think of it.
AA Milne

What does this mean to you?
ITIL is the framework for operational architecture“Adopt, Adapt, Improve”
Assess the current operation against BS15000 to identify the Road Map for improvement Use a Balanced Scorecard approach to report performance (possibly using CObIT controls) Use combined Lean and Six Sigma to define a continuous process improvement program Use Excellence Model for quick / repeatable self-assessment of “business-led” Set up education and dedicated team
