Investing in change, but not seeing strategic results?
While competitors outpace you, internal efforts spin in circles. The CAO approach shows how to design for outcomes, not just activity.
Align Strategy with organization design by leveraging axioms, principles, and proven guidelines

Strategic Alignment

What do others say about the courses?
Last week I spent interesting 2 days in a course on 'Designing agile organizations'. It turns out there is no single approach or integrated framework to address this challenge. We all need to find the answers ourselves. But thanks to Cesario Ramos and Ralph Jocham we have now a toolbox of proven methods and techniques to face the challenge! Great course!

An honor to participate in the first training about the fresh new book "Creating Agile Organizations". Understanding organisations from a holistic perspective. Getting deeper into why big agile transformations often underdeliver. Thanks Cesario Ramos and Ilia Pavlichenko for sharing your well of wisdom. I can't wait to bring the knowledge back to Belgium.

Really enjoyed the Designing Agile Organizations course! Learning alongside such an insightful group truly enhanced the experience. The practical examples provided, also from Strobbo, added significant value. For me, this course complements the LeSS practitioner course I previously followed, broadening the scope from multi-team Scrum to full product groups and beyond.
