Business Process Analysis identifies many competences that may be needed for business process work.

There are core skills identified within the book such as analyzing text, analyzing diagrams, defining associated information systems, costing, strategic planning, analyzing organizations, and performance management. There is a high chance that very few people have all these competences. Therefore, good teamwork is normally essential.

The book explains why the ultimate, and perhaps most difficult competence is the creation for an organization, its own meta model for defining its business processes. That is the only way to get on top of all the processes in an organization, and there may be several thousands of processes in a medium or large organization.
