"From Renting Resources to Driving Strategy A Shift Toward Business-Oriented R&D"

In our industries, large capital investment projects dominate and organizational inertia is high. Until recently, our digital units operated in a service-provider model, organized primarily for delivering detailed requests stakeholder by stakeholder. This meant functional silos and reactive delivery. But strategic demands have changed.

This talk will share our journey from Resource Topology (TASKS/CAPS levels) to a Driving Topology (PART/WHOLE levels)—highlighting how we applied systemic org design principles to navigate the transformation, manage reciprocal dependencies, and build ecosystems fit for purpose.
