Participants ranged from those just starting their process framework journey (57%) to those scaling (33%) and refining the use of process frameworks (11%), highlighting the breadth of maturity represented in the discussion.

The session surfaced practical lessons across framework selection, customization, governance, and adoption—along with candid insights into what actually works in practice.
