Enterprise Service Management (ESM) for Organizational Leadership
Critical thought leadership, guidance and example solutions for introducing and adopting Enterprise Service Management
Enterprise Service Management, or ESM is:
A powerful way to organize any team’s work around a catalog of services. These services collectively represent the capabilities of different parts of your organization. A service catalog is an easy-to-use collection of requests customers can initiate and receive from the appropriate team. The service catalog is the “hub” that activates these teams and supports them with:
- clearly defined workflows that track complex service delivery to ensure customer satisfaction.
- controls that provide for lightweight yet rigorous approvals and notification to ensure oversight and visibility.
- supported by automation and visualizations that reduce collaboration toil
- An adaptable and effective way of measuring how we organize, collaborate and track our work to completion.
In this class we power your team with important insights into the emerging practice of ESM, especially that ESM is:
- Inspired by, but not the same as Information Technology Service Management (or ITSM)
- Complimentary to Enterprise Agility / Lean Portfolio Management, yet the approach is entirely independent of adopting Enterprise Agile Lean methods.
- Based on the same values and principles of Lean management
