The Organizational Design Community (ODC) invites you to the following webinar:
Organizing for deep innovation: three archetypes in the tech industry
Martin Gonzalez (Google)
and
Shannon Mahon (Miles 88 Leadership)
--- 27th February 2025, Thursday at 9am EST/3pm CET ---
Sustainable innovation is highly sought after by companies in many industries, but it's unclear how to structure organizations and workflows to create the conditions for innovation in a business-relevant way. Drawing from their experience with both tech startups and industry giants, Martin and Shannon will talk about the different archetypes of innovation-some fostering extreme autonomy akin to academia, while others emphasizing a highly product-focused approach. This talk will cover the strengths and weaknesses of each model and offer a compelling journey through the history of computer science.
