THE BOOK · POWERED BY ORG TOPOLOGIES
10X ORG
10X is not more activity. It is a tenfold increase in the organization's capability to learn, evolve, create value and stay strategically aligned.
A business novel with a working method inside. The CEO wants fewer hires and more AI. Hanna, head of HR, looks through the Org Topologies lens — and finds an org design misfit no tool can fix. Principles, maps and real case studies along the way.

“10X is a vote for humanity in an era obsessed with mechanical efficiency.”
WHAT REVIEWERS AND READERS SAY
“You might be surprised how disconnected your organization’s structure is from what you are trying to achieve with it. In this book, Alexey and Roland describe a practical approach to organizational redesign, offering a blueprint for success.”
Dave WestCEO at Scrum.org (USA)“Most management books add complexity. This one strips it away. And it does so while being genuinely fun to read, which... for a book about organizational design, is practically a miracle.”
Jürgen De SmetYour Chief Simplification Officer (Belgium)★★★★★ on Goodreads“Absolutely one of the best books in recent years—and certainly the best at explaining how to get the maximum possible value out of AI. … We purchased the book for our entire executive team, along with 10 additional copies to circulate among others.”
Taru Vasenius★★★★★ on Goodreads “The book’s core insight is clear: true 10X growth requires rethinking organisational structure—not just adding technology to existing silos. If you want real organisational improvement—not just theatre—read it to understand why fluid scaling and self-organisation are the key building blocks for 10X change.”
Quinton QuartelCreator of FAST Agile (USA)“Despite being written for the context of 2026, the book is a heavyweight packed with timeless organizational wisdom. My highlighter literally ran out of ink trying to mark all the nuggets for future educational use.”
Steinar HaldorsenStrategic Executive Partner (Norway)★★★★★ on Goodreads“A rare book that actually changes how you see organizations. … If you've ever sat through a reorg that solved nothing, or watched an 'AI transformation' stall because nobody addressed the underlying structure — this book names what you were feeling and gives you a vocabulary to act on it.”
Tomasz Zelezny★★★★★ on Goodreads “As someone who lives in the world of Flow, Kanban Strategy, TameFlow, and Org Design, this is the book I've been waiting for.”
José CoignardProKanban Trainer (France)★★★★★ on Goodreads“The core contribution of the book is simple but powerful: performance is structural. … What I appreciate most in the book is that it treats organizational design not as a consultant deliverable, but as a leadership responsibility!”
Jens Thiemann★★★★★ on Goodreads “For me, the Org Topologies concept brought new light and joy into scaling conversations, and I would highly recommend it for any organization, no matter how far they are on their agile journey.”
Zuzi ŠochováCertified Scrum Trainer; author of The Great ScrumMaster (Czech Republic)“In a way, reading 10xOrg feels like revisiting Peter Senge's The Fifth Discipline in the Age of AI.”
Ilja Vi★★★★★ on Goodreads “Packed with practical tips that help me reflect and act in my role as a leader. This is a book you should always have in your back pocket!”
Joris VerheijDirector Anti-Financial Crime Operations, ASN Bank (Netherlands)“10X Org is one of the few org/design books I've read that genuinely integrates systems thinking, orgl design and AI leverage in a coherent way.”
Alena Hlekava★★★★★ on Goodreads “The characters feel so real that I kept thinking: "Yep, I've worked with this person." … For me, the storyline made the ideas stick.”
Zdenek★★★★★ on Goodreads “OT gave me the insight that growing companies suffer from a growing need for coordination … The Team-of-Teams, guided by a common vision and goal, requires less top-down coordination.”
Michiel de van der SchuerenDigital transformation lead, public sector, Rapid Circle (Netherlands)“With all the hype around AI, I was getting anxious about my future as a developer. This book helped me change my perspective and understand how to steer my career to remain productive and valuable in my organization.”
Mike Maikovych★★★★★ on Amazon.com “As someone who has worked for years with organizational design and large-scale agile transformations, I rarely get genuinely excited about a management book. 10x Org is one of those rare exceptions.”
Robert Briese★★★★★ on Amazon.de “I particularly liked the “Ferrari Effect” metaphor: AI can make individuals faster, but if the organisation still has traffic jams and roadblocks, overall performance will not improve.”
Natalia★★★★★ on Amazon.com “For me, Org Topologies™ has become the missing piece of the puzzle that connects agility, frameworks, switching costs, transaction costs, learning costs, to organizational design.”
Koen Siegers★★★★★ on Amazon.com“This book goes straight to the heart of the issue: the real bottleneck is rarely the technology — it’s the organizational design.”
Pelzl★★★★★ on Amazon.de “Good managers understand the relationship between organisational performance and how work and skills are structured. Great managers apply this in practice.”
Viktor★★★★★ on Amazon.nl “A dialogue-based book that you finish thinking "okay, now I see it." A really necessary book for managers.”
Francois★★★★★ on Amazon.fr “A powerful and practical guide for modern leaders. Clear thinking, actionable frameworks, and a compelling vision for combining people and AI to elevate performance. Highly recommended.”
Alexandra★★★★★ on Amazon.de “The exchange between novel and narrative, and explanation of how they helped organisations based on real life experience and examples, is a refreshing way of storytelling as well as educating. A pleasant yet educative read!”
