Theo Priestley - The Process Maverick - has a very timely opinion piece on his blog about the state of current BPM conferences.
He contends - with examples - that a lot of conferences have become repeats of what has been said before (something I agree with) and that CONTENT needs to be king with the kind of folks who put on these conferences.
I also echo the thoughts of Dr Geary Rummler who said - before his death last year - that conferences are starting to become vendor fairs and that users are not interested in that (Although I was given a slightly different perspective on that from my interview with Dennis Parker from K2 yesterday - More soon). Perhaps these factors are conspiring against conference organisors.....
Have a quick look at Theo's thoughts and see whether you agree with him.
