Maybe there is a way to do it from the zul itself (not sure about that), but I broadcast global notifications from the event handler in my zul's backing ViewModel...

eg.. Your zul

<button label="Submit" onClick="@command('doSomething')"/>

Your backing VM

@Command
public void doSomething() {
    //do stuff, then broadcast notification
    BindUtils.postGlobalCommand(null, null, "somethingHappened", null);
}

Some other VM backing a different zul

@GlobalCommand("somethingHappened")
public void handleSomethingHappened() {
    //
}

note, I like to store my global Commands in a constants file so the string names are defined in one place, so I do something like BindUtils.postGlobalCommand(null, null, MyGlobalCommands.SOMETHING_HAPPENED, null); You can also pass args through the global commands as well.
