In today’s rapidly evolving digital landscape, it is more important than ever for organisations to remain agile and adaptable. To address this need we have developed this practical two-day course for executives, managers and consultants.

The goal of the course is to give you the skills necessary to design, assess and maintain agile ecosystems at the enterprise-wide level to solve existing challenges by extending agility beyond team boundaries and established frameworks.

What you will learn during this two-day masterclass

Org Topologies™ will enable you to own and master your path toward higher states of adaptability, starting from wherever you are now. Your organization will be more customer-focused, enabling you to stay relevant for your customers and stakeholders in the long run.

The course explores the concept of Business Agility, which brings up organisational capabilities, behaviors and methodologies that enable companies to achieve their goals with freedom, flexibility and resilience. By embracing Business Agility, organisations can not only compete, but thrive in the digital age by seizing market shifts and new opportunities.

Before making changes, a solid understanding of the existing system is necessary. Taught by the creators of Org Topologies™ in an innovative format called “Org Design Studio” that allows participants to sketch, prototype, iterate, evaluate, and improve different org design options with ease.
