Your AI is fast.Your org isn't?

I've spent twenty years at the intersection of software engineering, organizational change, and management — and now I build with AI every day.

I started as a software developer in Kyiv in 2000 — Perl, Visual Basic, Java. Later came .NET and Ruby on Rails. Two decades of building systems. Now it is all anew with AI. Or is it not?

In 2005 and for 10 years to come I was leading the agile movement in Ukraine. I produced Agile Eastern Europe and Agile Rock Conference — the region's largest agile events. I coached hundreds of product teams in various countries and companies.

In 2022, with Roland Flemm as a sparring partner, we created Org Topologies — to help our clients drive deeper, more structural organizational transformations. The mapping technique that emerged shows where your organization is, why it's stuck, and what to redesign.

In Feb 2026, I published 10X ORG, co-authoring with Roland Flemm and Craig Larman — #1 on Amazon in Management Science. The book makes one argument: AI amplifies whatever organizational design was already in place. So we say: Redesign, then AI.

I now run two conferences: the Org Design Summit in Amsterdam and Agentic Shift in Munich — where org design meets AI engineering.

Based in Munich. And happy to talk.
