This project developed a reference curriculum to teach explorative Business Process Management (explorative BPM) to university students. This was motivated by two observations. First, digital innovation is becoming more and more important, and future manager should know about potentials associated with emerging technologies. Second, while BPM has become an influential management paradigm in contemporary organizational work, it has traditionally neglected the role of (digital) innovation.In response to these observations, we developed a curriculum to teach explorative BPM. In doing so, we (1) conducted conceptual and empirical research and developed the Five Diamond Method to realize explorative BPM in organizations, (2) used this model to design a 4-ECTS curriculum which we have taught and evaluated at universities in Austria, Germany and Liechtenstein, as well as with practitioners and BPM professionals and (3) disseminated our results through academic talks, several publications and an innovative virtual workshop format.In terms of dissemination, we want to highlight the following numbers:- We taught the explorative BPM curriculum to around 200 students in three European unviersities- We presented the Five-Diamond-Method to around 170 practitioners in Europe- We presented and discussed our findings with around 80 academics at various conferences in Europe - We published our findings in academic as well as practitioner-related journalsTaken together, this project created considerable impact on students, practitioners and academics. In terms of long-term impact, we expect that our FIve-Diamond-Method will continue to enhance innovation activities in the context of BPM, and inform future research activities in the international academic environment.
