What you'll learn

Spot boundaries that create coordination cost

Learn to see where team boundaries generate unnecessary handoffs, delays, and overhead in your current structure.

Make cross-team dependencies visible

Use a practical approach to surface hidden dependencies before they show up as blockers in your delivery flow.

Choose the right coordination pattern

Evaluate which coordination patterns fit your actual context — and which ones are quietly making things slower.

Why this topic matters

This session gives you the tools to find where your team structure is costing you delivery speed. As AI accelerates individual output, hidden dependencies and blurred ownership become more expensive, not less. In 45 minutes, leave with a clear picture of your friction points and one concrete next step you can act on immediately.

You'll learn from

Giuseppe De Simone

Coach & Trainer, Turning Insight Into Action for Managers and Organisations

Giuseppe De Simone is a Certified Trainer and organisational coach with 25+ years in product development and transformations at enterprise scale. He has coached and trained leaders at organisations where the gap between individual performance and delivery throughput is not theoretical: it is the daily reality.

He keeps seeing the same pattern: AI tools accelerate individual output, but the operating model was never designed for that speed. The result is more friction, not less. His work focuses on the layer most skip: how decisions flow, how alignment breaks down, and how teams coordinate under pressure.

He teaches what he practises: direct, specific, grounded in organisational complexity.

Simon Sablowski

Coordination & Org Design Consultant Guiding You Through Complex Change

Simon Sablowski is a coordination and organisational design consultant who helps companies redesign the layer between their people and their delivery: the structures, boundaries, and patterns that determine how fast decisions move, how dependencies are managed, and how teams actually coordinate in practice.

He works with engineering-led organisations navigating the gap between individual performance and delivery throughput. His focus is on the structural root causes that most interventions skip: where team boundaries are drawn, how dependencies are made visible, and which coordination patterns fit the actual work, not just the org chart.
