Alec Sharp, a senior consultant with Clariteq Systems Consulting, has deep expertise in a rare combination of fields – business-oriented data modelling, business process analysis and redesign, and business analysis and requirements specification. Increasingly, his work involves facilitation, organisational change, and project recovery. His 40 years of hands-on consulting experience, practical approaches, and global reputation in model-driven methods have made him a sought-after resource around the world.

Alec literally wrote the book on business process modelling, “Workflow Modelling: Tools for Process Improvement and Application Development, Second Edition.”  Popular with process improvement specialists, business analysts, consultants, and business professionals, it is consistently a top-selling title on business process modelling, analysis, and design, and is widely used as an MBA textbook.

He was awarded DAMA’s Professional Achievement Award, a global award given to one professional a year for contributions to the Data Management profession.

Alec’s educational workshops are conducted virtually and in-person at many well-known organisations. These include Business-Oriented Data Modelling, Business-Oriented Data Modelling – Masterclass, Working With Business Processes, Advanced Business Process Techniques, and Model-Driven Business Analysis Techniques.
