Welcome to a very special episode of What’s Your Baseline? — where we demystify enterprise architecture and business process management. In this milestone 100th episode, we are joined by fellow BPM podcasters from Prozess Philosophen and BPM360 to celebrate, reflect, and talk about the wild ride of creating content in this niche space.
In this episode of the podcast, we talk about:
- Milestone celebration — 100 full-length episodes! A look back at the journey and what's ahead.
- Origin stories — How each podcast got started: from Munich restaurants to airport lounges, and "anonymous alcoholics for BPM enthusiasts."
- The evolution of podcasting — From rough first episodes to polished productions (or intentionally unpolished ones).
- Video vs. audio debate — The pros, cons, and time costs of adding video to podcasts; why some stick to one-take recording.
- Editing realities — 10 minutes vs. 8 hours: wildly different approaches to post-production and what works for each team.
- Authenticity over AI polish — Why staying real and soulful matters in an era of AI-generated, hyper-polished content.
- Community-driven content — Listener feedback shapes episodes; the power of niche audiences and recurring themes.
- Lessons learned — Top advice for aspiring podcasters: just start, don't overthink, make guests comfortable, and embrace imperfection.
- Underrated vs. Overrated — Change management (underrated), AI hype (overrated), process models (underrated), BPMN notation alone (overrated).
- The future of BPM podcasting — Where the medium is headed, from knowledge lexicons to safe spaces for authentic discussion.
- Listener challenge — What content do you consume? How do you consume it? What resonates with you and why?
- Gratitude and reflections — A heartfelt thank you to the audience, guests, and the BPM community for four years of support.
