A paradigm shift is when a fundamental and/or monumental change or disruption occurs in current processes, models or perceptions. In other words, a monumental adjustment in norms, standards, thinking, patterns and set values, etc.
These paradigm shifts have frightened some business owners to the point of departing from the world of business. However, many other entrepreneurs perceived the “shift” as opportunities and have, therefore, founded new types of businesses that led to even greater paradigm shifts. One of the radical paradigm shifts has been in business process management software and process control.

Paradigm Shift in Business Process Management | Not Rocket Science
Do not let a paradigm shift FRIGHTEN you, especially in business management. The first step a business owner should consider when facing a paradigm shift is to ensure they have QUALITY TIME. As a result, of having quality time, an owner can study, test, compare and, most importantly, embrace the paradigm shift, IF it proves beneficial.
To ensure having quality time for facing paradigm shifts, a business owner must systemize their business, so as to operate WITH or WITHOUT being on premise. In other words, eliminate business frustrations that keep an owner bogged down in the mundane daily operations.
