Summary/Abstract: The growing popularity of the process approach in management contributes to the changes in processes modeling methods, including notations, languages and IT tools. The sources of modeling methods can be sought both in management science and software engineering. The paper identifies the important sources of the process approach in management: the structured and object-oriented methodologies used in the information system analysis and design, as well as the software package implementation methods. Attention is paid to the characteristics of modern universal process notations such as BPMN. The author stresses that the evolution of the process approach and associated notations and tools brings together the points of view of management and IT specialists.
