I help leaders develop viable and valuable organisations 

​

Most organisations today are built on outdated principles, prioritising profit, process and efficiency. This worked well when the world was more stable. Strategic planning also made sense. ​

​

But that world has gone. Today reality outpaces the plan and those organisations that cling to it get left behind, or worse.

​​

This is an organisational design issue. And this is where I can be of value.

​

My work is grounded in the ongoing research and exploration of The Intelligent Organisation, a think tank examining how organisations must evolve to survive and thrive amidst constant disruption.
 

• IntelligentOrganisation.org is where the ideas are explored.

• AdeMcCormack.com is where those ideas are applied.

​​

I support organisations through:

​​

• Keynotes that challenge outdated assumptions about leadership and organisation design

• Workshops that help teams design mechanisms for operating in increasingly uncertain conditions

• Advisory work focused on redesigning organisations for adaptiveness, not stability.

​

This is not leadership development in the traditional sense. It’s organisational engineering for an increasingly unpredictable world.

​​

I work with senior executives, HR and digital leaders who recognise that:

​​

• Their operating model is no longer fit for purpose

• Complexity has outpaced their governance and decision structures

• Incremental change is no longer enough

• The strategic and operational assumptions of the industrial era no longer hold true.

​​​

If you’re interested in the thinking, explore the research at IntelligentOrganisation.org.

​​

If you are ready to act, we should talk.
