Download the Org Topologies™ Primer
The Primer is a free, comprehensive summary of the Org Topologies™ visual thinking tool to help you assess and design your agile ecosystem and its change over time.
Navigate your organizational improvement journey with a powerful map.
Org Topologies™ in its essence is a two-dimensional space with 16 distinctive boxes - atomic organizational archetypes. That space helps you to plot your current operating model by positioning individuals, departments, and teams on the map. This will give a profound understanding of the performance of your value-creating organizational ecosystem.
Once you've plotted your current state, you can start exploring options for an improved target organizational design that serves as your north star.
Knowing your current and target states allows you to control the gradual navigation toward organizational-wide improvements, thoughtfully adjusting your course as your organization learns along its transformation journey.
Develop and sustain a business-oriented R&D for maximizing organizational agility, innovation, and resilience. This is a space where business and IT work as one on what is most important. The structure is value-driven and continuously shapes and forms around value creation. Org Topologies™ provides a clear set of principles and rich tools to help leaders and change agents uplift their IT departments to become business-oriented R&D groups.
Benefits of Org Topologies™
Senior Product Owner
"I used Org Topologies for the last two years myself, to answer questions regarding the agility of a team and the current project, and to identify the next steps moving forward. It supported me as a basis for alignment with our clients in identifying where we stand right now and, if there is a wish to evolve, which would be the right direction and actions. I recommend checking out if the Org Topologies might work for you as well"
Scrum Master / Agile Coach
"There are many tools out there that promise organizations the moon, but somehow with each attempt to improve the # of issues, only multiply. Frustrations and waste increase, while retention and resilience decrease, which is especially painful and costly in time of crisis. Org Topologies™ IS the missing link that orchestrates the connection between the REAL issue at hand and RIGHT solution."
