Abstract
Subject-oriented Business Process Management (S-BPM) is a novel paradigm in Business Process Management (BPM). Educating students and business stakeholders in S-BPM requires facilitating a substantial mind shift from function- towards communication-oriented (re-)construction of processes. Reformist pedagogy, as driven by Maria Montessori, allows learners grasping and applying novel concepts in self-contained settings and in an individualistic while reflected way. So why not learn from her experiences for introducing S-BPM? In this contribution her analysis of human cultural factors enabling literacy has been transcribed to S-BPM education. When informing S-BPM capacity development according to progressive education, understanding the actual situation and readiness of learners seems to play a crucial role, as it influences their engagement in learning environments. These factors need to be differentiated when conveying S-BPM concepts and activities.
