Essential Architecture: Simple Systems to Amplify the Org Dev Work that Matters Most


Ian C. Williams

Join us for this afternoon event in partnership with MNODN!

Tired of fighting fires instead of focusing on strategy? Most organizations are drowning in complexity when what they really need is clarity. This workshop introduces an essentialist framework proven to help leaders and teams increase performance, engagement, and enterprise value. All that’s needed are a few timeless principles to unlock real leverage as it relates to organizational development.

Participants will learn to:

  • Use Minimum Effective Dose thinking to reduce over-engineering
  • Apply Pareto and Parkinson’s Laws to workflows and schedules
  • Differentiate Maker vs. Manager time for better team productivity
  • Craft business processes that actually support operational strategy
  • Adopt the “BOP It” model to improve execution and increase clarity

Objectives:

Participants will walk away with actionable strategies and a repeatable system to reduce operational drag, improve execution, and make space for high-impact work so they can finally work on the business, not just in it.
