Our Mission
We help leaders, entrepreneurs, and those who help them, learn how to design and build the organizations they really want and society needs – organizations that produce sustainable results.
Our Vision
Our vision is a world where leaders, entrepreneurs, and those who help them, have the knowledge, skills, and abilities + the tools, techniques, and technologies (T3) to [re]design and [re]build organizations that create sustainable value for multiple stakeholders: investors, customers, employees, suppliers and partners, society, and the natural environment.
Our Values
Service
Serving organization architects is why we get up each day and work on creating new and improved tools, techniques, and digital content for organization architects of all types – leaders of existing organizations, entrepreneurs scaling up, and the people who help them.
Independence
This site is self-funded and free from external sponsorship or influence. We are free to do what we think is the right thing to do for our members and stakeholders.
Integrity
With integrity and trust many things are possible, but without it nothing is possible. And, it is the basis for collaboration and teamwork.
Respect
We treat everyone with the same high level of respect regardless of their title, knowledge, skills, or accomplishments.
Collaboration
We value collaboration with organization architects of all types. We have not found a single person who knows enough to design an effective organization by their self.
Research + Creativity
For us, organization design is a theory-led discipline where research and empirical evidence inform leadership and design. Organization design is a creative and context-dependent process that is enhanced when informed by the empirical evidence – what we know works, what we know doesn’t work, and in what situations.
Sustainable Value
We value designs that do not steal from one stakeholder (including future generations) to serve another stakeholder or our current “needs” or greed. We help you work toward organization designs that generate value for all your key stakeholders both current and future.
Joy
We are working to improve the human condition and having fun doing it. When we are having fun, we are doing our best work. If you are not having fun at work, either you are doing it wrong, or your leaders/managers are doing it wrong, or both.
