Live online organisational design programme
Designing Adaptable Organisations
Reduce friction. Clarify ownership. Design an organisation that can keep changing.
This supported programme helps you examine how teams, roles, decision-making and collaboration fit together—and identify where the current design creates unnecessary friction. Bring one real organisational challenge. Leave with clearer design options and an experiment you can test.
You only need a real challenge and enough influence to start a useful conversation. Work on one decision, team boundary, ownership gap or collaboration bottleneck within your reach—and design a small experiment that can build evidence for wider change.
More individual power does not automatically create collective clarity
Better tools make us faster. Alignment makes that speed useful.
AI tools make individuals more capable and allow more of us to work as generalists across traditional specialist boundaries.
But organisations remain human systems. Without shared goals, clear ownership and agreement about decisions, greater individual speed can amplify stress, confusion, duplicated effort and waste.
Adaptability requires deliberate time to think together, decide what matters and design how the work should happen.
Built for people shaping how work happens
People and Transformation
For People and HR leaders, organisational development professionals, transformation leads and internal facilitators responsible for making change work.
Product and Technology
For CTOs, Heads of Engineering or Product, engineering managers and product leaders improving cross-functional delivery or scaling their organisation.
Questions we will explore
- Where is the current organisation creating unnecessary friction?
- Are responsibilities and decision rights clear enough?
- Do team boundaries still fit the work?
- Which capabilities belong inside teams, and which should be shared?
- How can you test a better design without launching another large reorganisation?
- What needs to be aligned before greater speed becomes useful?
AI is one of several forces accelerating change. This is not a course about AI tools; it is about designing organisations that can respond to changing strategies, capabilities and ways of working.
What you take back to work
A clearer map
Understand how teams, roles, capabilities, value streams and decision rights affect your challenge.
A shared language
Use practical organisation-design patterns without introducing another rigid framework.
A next experiment
Turn your challenge into a context-specific organisational experiment you can test and improve.

Principles, not prescriptions
The programme uses the unFIX pattern library to help you explore alternatives and make deliberate choices that fit your organisation, strategy and context. You will not leave with a generic structure to copy. You will leave better equipped to design and evolve your own organisation.

Facilitated by Kadri Pirn
Kadri has hands-on leadership experience across engineering, product, people, transformation and business operations.

Her work connects organisational performance with a deeply human question: how can we build better workplaces while keeping the business sustainable?
Common questions
Is this an AI course?
No. AI is one example of the changes organisations need to respond to. The programme focuses on the principles and patterns needed to design adaptable organisations.
Do I need previous unFIX experience?
No. The programme introduces the relevant principles and patterns and helps you apply them to your own situation.
Can several people from the same organisation participate?
Yes. Joining with colleagues can help you create a shared language and work on the same organisational challenge. Group booking codes are available for three or more participants.
I am interested, but these dates do not work for me. What should I do?
Send Kadri a note at kadri@pirn.ee. You can register your interest in a future cohort or discuss whether another format or schedule could work.
I would like to bring this programme into my organisation. Is that possible?
Yes. A dedicated in-company programme can focus on your organisation’s actual challenges and create a shared design language across the participating group.
This is particularly useful when leaders from People, Product, Technology or Transformation need to work together on ownership, collaboration or organisational friction.
Contact Kadri to arrange a short conversation about the context, group and possible format.
What happens after I register?
Complete the short registration form. Kadri will personally confirm your place and send the ticket-purchase or invoicing instructions within one working day.
Bring a real challenge
Do not leave with another model to admire.
Leave with a clearer understanding of your organisation, practical design choices and an experiment you can run.
