Is your organization no longer delivering value as quickly as it used to?
Maybe your teams are struggling with too much context switching, and their current workload no longer fits in their head. Are your teams being pulled in many directions?
Are those teams disengaged with their daily work?
Does it feel like your organization's communication channels are hindering value delivery?
Do you feel the need to change how your teams are working together, but you are having difficulty in articulating how the organization should adapt and change?
This is a workshop to teach participants about the key concepts from the book Team Topologies - and how to apply the Team Topologies modeling shapes to explore organization dynamics.
Using the Team Topologies shapes and diagramming principles, it is possible to create a series of snapshots of an organization at various points in time that help you to understand and reason behind how and why the teams within an organization communicate and interact.
This workshop provides an in-depth introduction to how to use Team Interaction Modeling (TIM) to effectively capture, annotate and discuss organization evolution within the content of your organization.
The battle-tested shapes are the fastest way to model and visualise different options for team responsibilities and interactions based on the ideas in the Team Topologies book.
