ELEVATE YOUR ORG PERFORMANCE

Org Topologies_ extended maps 2025 - Elevating (1).jpg

Every org sits somewhere on the OT Map.

Are you stuck chasing local speed—or elevating toward outcomes and adaptiveness?

Org Topologies™ helps leaders elevate their organizations—aligning strategy and structure so they stay relevant, deliver outcomes, and remain fit for purpose.

Fixing teams in isolation or adopting scaling frameworks won’t make an organization effective. Elevation comes from fit-for-purpose org design: aligning structures, roles, and processes—with AI reducing barriers and amplifying elevation—so the whole system delivers outcomes.

How Org Design and AI Drive Performance
  1. Different org designs serve different goals: adaptiveness, flow, efficiency, etc.
     

  2. The wrong design blocks performance: unfit structures derail business objectives like market share or profit.
     

  3. Leaders must design deliberately: org goals (e.g. adaptive) should align with and influence business objectives.
     

  4. Org Topologies shows the path: align design with strategy to make 10X performance achievable.
     

  5. Apply AI strategically: with Org Topologies as a vector, AI reduces barriers and accelerates elevation.

What Makes Org Topologies Different

Org Topologies Mapping

Org Topologies introduces a simple, shared visual language to see where you are, what’s blocking outcomes, and how to elevate—without framework jargon.


This makes it easier to create a shared understanding of things as they are. The visual language connects specialists from different backgrounds and facilitates open, unambiguous discussions about the performance of the organizational design.

The Org Topologies map is a visual thinking tool to guide the redesign of organizations, easy for many to use. The MADE method is a repeatable loop: Map, Assess, Design, and Elevate.

Benefits of Org Topologies

Org. development I Executive coaching | Certified Org Topologies Partner

"Since 2022, I’ve experienced great value from using Org Topologies™ (OT) with clients in different organizational development contexts. One of the most compelling reasons is that it gave us a way to communicate observations, experiences, ideas, and potential change initiatives that were otherwise hard to explain consistently.

It shifted the focus from consultant-led advice to client-owned reasoning. This empowered the organizations to take greater ownership of both problem understanding and experimentation with design improvements."

"It was so much easier to describe the FlixBus agile journey using Org Topologies™, which otherwise would need much more explanation and reasoning. Mapping product depth and team skills dimensions bridges the gap between applying frameworks and discovering ways to organize teams. Thank you for the elegant system to visualize organizational growth."
