    #141 - What happens when Coding Stops Being the Bottleneck - with Alberto Brandolini and Marco Heimeshoff

    What happens when coding is no longer the bottleneck in software development? In this episode, Alberto Brandolini - creator of EventStorming and pioneer in domain-driven design - joins software engineer and Kandddinsky founder Marco Heimeshoff to explore how AI is transforming the practice of building software, and what remains fundamentally human in the process. Together, they reflect on the growing importance of collaborative modelling, domain language, organisational coherence, and feedback loops in a world where software can increasingly be generated through interaction rather than deterministic programming. This episode offers a grounded yet provocative perspective on what it means to be human, in an increasingly agentic world. Tune in. Alberto and Marco also speak about how AI is reshaping their day-to-day development practices - from using Claude Code and Obsidian-based memory systems to designing “harnesses” that constrain and guide increasingly capable agents. The conversation explores the rise of transient software, the limits of “vibe coding,” and why bounded contexts, modular architectures, and shared language become essential when working with probabilistic systems. Together, they offer a practical glimpse into how software engineering is evolving from writing deterministic code toward orchestrating learning, context, and collaboration between humans and AI systems. Episode co-hosted by Eugenio Battaglia. Key Highlights👉 Coding is no longer the primary bottleneck in software development; the real challenge is shaping context, boundaries, and shared understanding for AI systems.👉 Collaborative modelling becomes even more important in an AI-native world, because humans still need to align on purpose, trade-offs, and organisational intent.👉 “Harness engineering” is emerging as a new discipline focused on constraining, guiding, and coordinating AI systems through workflows, memory, tests, and domain context.👉 Large language models can accelerate software production dramatically, but ambiguity in language and organisational misalignment still create major risks.👉 Faster feedback loops may expose organisational incoherence more quickly, forcing companies to confront outdated structures, unclear responsibilities, and low-value work.👉 Human conversations, organisational politics, and qualitative understanding remain irreplaceable because people rarely know — or communicate — exactly what they truly need.👉 The rise of “vibe coding” may increase speed in the short term, but without deep understanding and modular boundaries, systems can quickly become fragile and unmanageable.

    #140 - Playable Enterprises - with Annika Klyver and Milan Guenther

    Milan Guenther and Annika Klyver, seasoned practitioners working at the intersection of enterprise architecture, enterprise design, and organisational transformation, join this episode to explore how organisations can better describe, design, and ultimately execute how they create value in a complex AI-enabled world. Drawing on more than a decade of experience, they reflect on the evolution from traditional enterprise architecture toward enterprise design, talking about tools like EDGY and the Milky Way map that help organisations create a shared organisational perspective. The discussion also explores how AI and distributed capabilities are reshaping coordination within organisations, why we need new design languages that balance visual collaboration with more formal, machine-readable models, and so much more. As we reflect on how enterprise design can help organisations move beyond static diagrams, we learn how to move from simply describing enterprise scenarios to “pressing play,” simulating, coordinating, and executing complex value flows across complex ecosystems. Tune in. Milan, President of Intersection Group and co-author of Enterprise Design Patterns, and Annika Klyver, Senior Business Architect at TRATON Group, reflect on the importance of capabilities as core building blocks of organisations. They explore ideas such as promise-based coordination, fractal organisational structures, and scenario-based experimentation, highlighting how organisations can balance autonomy and coherence while continuously adapting their value flows. Tune in to learn how to create shared contexts that allow people and organisations to evolve together. Key Highlights👉 Enterprise design expands traditional enterprise architecture by integrating purpose, experience, and capabilities into a shared language that helps organisations understand how they create value.👉 Capabilities act as the core building blocks of organisations, focusing conversations on what an enterprise must be able to do rather than on structures, processes, or systems.👉 Tools like EDGY and the Milky Way map help organisations create shared understanding across business, technology, and organisational perspectives.👉 Moving from static diagrams to “press play” models allows teams to run scenarios and explore how value flows through capabilities before implementing changes.👉 As organisations become more networked and distributed, coordination increasingly happens across teams and organisations rather than within rigid hierarchies.👉 Shared purpose and storytelling help teams make better local decisions without waiting for top-down instructions.👉 AI and new digital tools may enable enterprise models to become machine-readable and executable, allowing both humans and machines to understand organisational structures.👉 Balancing autonomy and alignment is essential in complex organisations: teams need freedom to act, but within a shared understanding of the enterprise’s goals.

    #139 - From Hierarchy to Intelligence: What does it mean? - with Andrea Gioia

    What happens when AI dramatically lowers the cost of coordination inside organisations? In this episode, Andrea Gioia, Partner and CTO at Quantyca and author of Managing Data as a Product, explores how AI and new information architectures may transform the way organisations are designed and managed. Breaking down Jack Dorsey’s recent article on the visions of AI-enabled, modular companies, the conversation looks at why traditional industrial-era organisational models are simply unfit for a complex environment. As AI makes execution increasingly easier, the real bottleneck shifts toward coordination: aligning knowledge, decisions, and actions across increasingly distributed capabilities. Tune in to explore how organisations can navigate this emerging challenge. Andrea, in this episode, looks into how competitive advantage could evolve in an AI-enabled economy. As coordination becomes easier and organisations become more modular, success, he says, will depend less on scale and efficiency, and more on adaptability, experimentation, and the human ability to define purpose. As we explore different world models, can AI play a powerful role in supporting cross-collaboration and translating knowledge across organisations, rather than replacing human judgment? Andrea explores this question and many more in this powerful conversation. Key Highlights👉 Modern organisations were designed for a predictable, industrial-era world, but today’s complex environment requires structures built for continuous adaptation.👉 As AI reduces the cost of execution, the true bottleneck inside organisations shifts toward coordination.👉 Modular organisations enable capabilities to be continuously unbundled and rebundled in response to changing market conditions.👉 Building adaptable organisations is not only a structural challenge but also a coordination and meaning-making challenge.👉 Instead of enforcing rigid standardisation, organisations can rely on AI to map and translate between different contexts.👉 AI agents embedded in workflows may gradually capture tacit knowledge that traditionally remains invisible inside organisations.👉 Before AI can effectively coordinate work, organisations need a minimal shared “world model” that defines identity, purpose, and context.👉 Decision-making may remain largely human in the near term, while coordination increasingly shifts toward AI-supported systems.👉 Scaling in the AI era is less about organisational size and more about the ability to reconfigure capabilities quickly.👉 When organisations become easily reproducible, differentiation must come from creativity and strategic judgment.

    #138 - Supply Chains as Complex Systems and their Organisational Implications - with Federico Marchesi

    Federico Marchesi, supply chain strategist and author of the Hacking Supply Chains newsletter, joins us to explore how disruptions, variability, and global constraints are not anomalies, but structural conditions that organisations must design their supply chains for. Drawing on his experience across global companies like Haier, Federico reflects on a key shift in how we should understand supply networks today: “In reality, we don’t operate a chain, but a complex adaptive system.” In this conversation, we unpack why adaptability requires more than operational improvements: how modular product architectures can help, and how organisations can become capable of responding dynamically to uncertainty. From Demand-Driven MRP to the growing role of AI agents in forecasting and logistics, the discussion highlights how supply chains increasingly rely on distributed intelligence and continuous adaptation. For leaders, strategists, and organisational designers, Federico offers a valuable perspective on why supply chains can no longer be treated as a back-end function. Instead, they are becoming a central lever in building complex-aware, resilient organisations. He speaks on the ideas of supply chain strategic design and why the deliberate structuring of flows, buffers, and decision points is important so that systems can always remain functional. The conversation also explores the parallels between organisational design and supply chain design, and highlights how structuring companies into smaller entrepreneurial units with clear incentives and autonomy will make them: distributed, adaptive, and able to respond to uncertainty. This conversation is for anyone interested in organisational design, strategy, and production systems. Key Highlights 👉 Supply chains are often described as linear flows, but in reality, they function as complex adaptive systems shaped by feedback loops, multiple actors, and constant variability. 👉 Building resilient supply networks requires strategic supply chain design, not just efficient day-to-day operations. 👉 Modularity in product architecture allows companies to delay final configuration decisions, making it easier to adapt to changing customer demands and supply disruptions. 👉 Adaptive supply chains depend on adaptive organisations - teams must have autonomy and incentives to respond dynamically rather than follow rigid processes. 👉 AI is increasingly augmenting supply chain operations, from improving demand forecasting to automating transactional logistics tasks. 👉 As global disruptions increase, supply chains are shifting from a demand-driven world toward a more supply-constrained reality, where the key capability is delivering value despite constraints. 👉 Organizations must rethink the classic centralised vs. decentralized debate and instead focus on coordinated networks of decision-making.

    #137 - Beyond Fear: Regaining the Passion of The Explorer in our Organizations - with John Hagel

    A world-renowned strategist and author, one of the pioneers of platform thinking, John Hagel, joins us on this episode. He starts the episode by sharing something profound: “I was taught to believe strategy is everything for winning. Over the years, I’ve come to realise it’s less about strategy and more about psychology.” He also discusses how fear currently largely shapes decision-making, and why regaining the “passion of the explorer” is fundamental in this time of change, as new forms of value creation are needed. He talks about approaches such as the Zoom In/Zoom Out and scaling the edge, which can help organisations navigate uncertainty. If you feel the urge to go beyond fear and create sustainable and empowering creation spaces, tune in. John is the author of several influential books, including the seminal “The Power of Pull” and “The Journey Beyond Fear”. He has always reflected on how organisations can navigate an era defined by accelerating technological change. Throughout the conversation, we explore why the future of work depends less on tightly specified tasks and more on cultivating environments where curiosity, experimentation, and the “human” element of work thrive. Key Highlights 👉 Strategy alone is not enough to drive transformation; leaders must understand the psychological forces, especially fear of the future, that shape how people respond to change. 👉 In an era where machines increasingly handle routine tasks, human work should focus on creativity, curiosity, and responding to unexpected challenges. 👉 Cultivating the “passion of the explorer”, a desire to keep learning and make a greater impact in one’s field, is key to improving performance over time. 👉 The Zoom Out / Zoom In approach to strategy helps organisations align long-term ambition with focused short-term initiatives that create tangible progress. 👉 Instead of attempting large-scale transformation all at once, organisations can “scale the edge” by experimenting in small initiatives that can gradually grow into the new core of the business. 👉 The emerging “trusted advisor” model highlights the value of deeply understanding customer contexts and orchestrating networks of resources to help them succeed. 👉 While technologies like generative AI can significantly improve coordination and resource discovery, human curiosity, judgment, and the ability to challenge assumptions remain central to creating meaningful value. 👉 In a rapidly changing world, the most powerful form of learning is not simply sharing existing knowledge, but creating entirely new knowledge together.

    #136 - Design As Participation - with Kevin Slavin

    Kevin Slavin - designer and entrepreneur working across technology, biology, and culture joins us on this episode to reflect on what it means to design within living, interconnected systems, and how technology moves forward not just through invention, but through the social and cultural conditions that allow ideas to take root in the world. Known for his article ‘Design as Participation’, he explores how design changes when “the system is the subject, and you’re downstream of it,” shifting the designer’s role away from control and speed toward humility and participation in complex systems. He also reflects on the limits of regulation and policy, and shares how his company Fairfield Bio is building marketplace and platform models - using rules, access controls, contracts, and incentive design to build trust and enable fair access to non-human genomic data even when trust is low. This episode is a reminder that design always encodes the future we choose to optimise for and the role each of us plays in shaping it. In this episode, Kevin Slavin, whose work spans institutions like MIT Media Lab and New York University, reflects on his shift from working on digital systems to engaging directly with biological research environments and living systems. The conversation ranged across the realities of working with complex socio-technical and biological systems, the tensions between experimentation and responsibility, and the challenges of coordinating action across institutions, nations, and cultures. The episode explores what it means to build new infrastructures in a world shaped by power asymmetries, historical extraction, and uneven access to knowledge. Join us as we discuss how designers and entrepreneurs can navigate uncertainty through structured marketplaces. Key Highlights 👉 Technological progress isn’t driven by invention alone; it advances based on social norms, cultural adoption, and the institutions that shape how new tools actually enter the world. 👉 Regulation and policy struggle to govern complex systems at scale - so governance must be designed into platforms through incentives, access rules, and contracts. 👉 Global coordination fails when trust is low, so systems should be designed to align interests even between actors who don’t share values. 👉 Historical extraction has created deep mistrust around biological data. Benefit-sharing mechanisms must be embedded by design to tackle this. 👉 Platforms aren’t neutral, and therefore builders must take responsibility for what kinds of behaviour their systems reward or exclude. 👉 Designing metrics that prioritise long-term value creation over user volume ensures the focus is on building stable growth, rather than fragile products. 👉 Open access holds the risk of misuse and, therefore, access control, vetting, and membership design become core governance tools, not afterthoughts. 👉 Designing infrastructure is designing the future, making founders and designers explicitly choose the outcomes they want their systems to produce, rather than defaulting to speed and scale.

    #135 - Transforming Bureaucracy into Software Platforms - with Jos De Blok

    The name behind one of the world’s largest and most cited self-managed organisations, Jos De Blok, joins us to deep dive into what it truly takes to build complexity-aware systems without bureaucracy. Founder and CEO of Buurtzorg, the Dutch neighbourhood nursing organisation, Jos has built a global reference point for community-based healthcare and self-managed organisations. In this conversation, we explore the philosophies that made Buurtzorg’s success possible - from transforming bureaucracy into software and replacing management layers with trust to the internal practices that enabled it to achieve remarkable KPIs, including a Net Promoter Score of 66% compared to a market average of 4%. Tune in, for this is a powerful exploration of self-management at scale. Is a leader’s job to steer? Jos argues that leadership is about protecting the autonomy that allows people to do their best work. For nearly 20 years, Buurtzorg has stood as a quiet anomaly in an industry defined by regulation, administrative overload, and hierarchical control, and succeeded. From these insights, we explore how steward ownership sustains long-term purpose and what it truly means to build an organisation that protects and grows professional wisdom. Join us as we explore how to prevent unnecessary bureaucracy and build platforms that enable genuine horizontal dialogue. Key Highlights 👉 Leadership is less about steering people and more about protecting the conditions that allow professionals to self-direct and exercise judgment. 👉 Bureaucracy doesn’t disappear by ignoring it - it can be redesigned and embedded into software, freeing people from mindless administrative work. 👉 Strategy doesn’t need to be a centralised offsite exercise; it can emerge through continuous, horizontal dialogue grounded in frontline experience. 👉 The true measure of support isn’t the size of the back office, but whether teams feel enabled to do meaningful work with minimal friction. 👉 Most people are already entrepreneurial in their daily lives - organisations simply need to create environments where that instinct can surface at work. 👉 Self-management works best when the focus shifts from controlling what might go wrong to expanding what professionals are capable of handling themselves. 👉 Steward ownership reframes capital as responsibility rather than control, aligning long-term purpose with financial sustainability. 👉 When trust is embedded in the system, resilience follows - from pandemic response to unexpected disruptions, autonomy accelerates adaptation.

    #134 - Agile in First Principles: Visualisation, Flow and Constraints - with Håkan Forss

    What do we think about Agile beyond frameworks - and how organisations actually learn, adapt, and continuously improve? Håkan Forss, a lean and agile coach and speaker who has become legendary for his iconic Lego figures-based presentations, joins us to unpack the hidden purpose of Agile and why its true power lies not in methods but in how organisations design for flow and fast customer feedback. Speaking on concepts like lean thinking, Kanban, and theory of constraints, Håkan explores why visualising work is a radical act in knowledge organisations, how limiting work in process exposes real constraints, and why optimising for customer feedback - not busyness - is essential in complex systems. This episode offers a long-term perspective on Agile, beyond fads. Håkan takes us inside his long-standing practice of working with organisations as living systems, discussing how traditional, project-based organisations struggle to operate in flow, how autonomy and coherence are often imbalanced, and how to address this in modern organisations. As the conversation widens to autonomy, AI, and decentralised teams, we explore deeper questions: what does it mean to organise when individuals can act faster alone, yet outcomes still depend on collective coherence? Key Highlights👉 The purpose of Lean and Agile is to achieve real business results for customers; methods and frameworks are only a means to that end.👉 Knowledge work is mostly invisible - it lives in people’s heads and inside computers, which makes visualisation a critical enabler of understanding and improvement.👉 Making work visible in a physical space helps people grasp the bigger context, react emotionally, and recognise how much work is actually happening in parallel.👉 Once waiting time and bottlenecks are visible, it becomes difficult to ignore the need for change - “once you see it, you cannot unsee it.”👉 Flow efficiency focuses on how much time customers' needs are actively being worked on versus how much time work is waiting.👉 Most organisations are structured around projects, systems, or silos, while actual customer needs cut across those boundaries and create delays.👉 Limiting work in process - not “work in progress” - exposes where work is standing still and forces problems to surface.👉 Faster customer feedback is more valuable than maximising utilisation, especially when organisations do not yet know what customers really need.👉 Increasing autonomy can improve flow, but without shared purpose and strategy, teams risk pulling in different directions and cancelling each other out.👉 Radical transparency around goals and key metrics enables people to self-organise around what matters most.👉 As power shifts to the edges with AI and decentralisation, the challenge for organisations moves from enabling flow to achieving coherence across signals.
