unFIX Foundation Workshop

 
 

unFIX Foundation (Online Workshop)

How can we change organizations to be as flexible and versatile as their business environment? How can we prepare businesses to survive and thrive in the 21st century? We need something that takes flexibility to a whole new level.

What comes next after approaches such as Management 3.0, SAFe, Holacracy and the Spotify model? Well, it's not hard to see where the world is moving: organizations made up of individuals, connected to the network, working from anywhere, forming teams on the fly and as needed, focusing on customer experience (CX), who they strive for goals and achieve results and have a lot of fun doing it. It's time to fix our organizations!

The unFIX model is a collection of patterns that will help you in all-round organization design. Unlike many agile frameworks and self-management methods, unFIX is focused on continuous innovation and user experience. It enables gradual changes, dynamic teams and an important role of the leader in the organization.

The goal of the workshop

At the workshop, you will get to know the unFIX model, which is a simple tool that helps you in all-round organization design.

The model is inspired by the approaches of innovative companies such as Haier and Tesla, various agile frameworks and books such as Team Topologies, Dynamic Reteaming and Organization Design.

A culture of continuous improvement goes far beyond the areas of software development and manufacturing. Innovation is more than just agile and lean approaches.

  • Improve user experience: Customers don't care about your products, they care about their well-being, progress and happiness. Help teams focus on superior user experiences, not their products.

  • Abandon the matrix organization: There is no speed in classic hierarchies and matrix organizations. Only independent teams and departments can act quickly enough when faced with crises or opportunities.

  • Improve transformation: Eliminate problems and errors created by different agile approaches. Stop the suffering caused by bad and harmful transformation programs.

  • Stop copying others: Why would you implement an organizational structure you copied from someone else? Dare to be different. Make your own organizational structure.

  • Embrace innovation: New ideas don't come from old approaches. Enable continuous business development and endless flexibility with just enough structure.

  • Change the meaning of leaders: Don't believe in the mantra "we don't need leaders". Turn managers into entrepreneurs and get them to manage the system, not the people.

  • Give people a reason to stay: People leave companies that don't give them a sense of belonging and recognition for good work. Don't be a company without a soul.

  • Enable hybrid work: Work is not a place people go to, but something they do. Be a company that stops managing people and starts doing things with added value.

  • Start with small steps: Programs that promise big changes rarely succeed. Take a more incremental approach and then stitch the transformation across your company.
