🚀 Cutting Time-to-Market by 3x… without changing a single line of code?
That’s exactly what a major French bank achieved by redesigning their team organization, as detailed in this (French) blog post by OCTO
The key? A setup inspired by Team Topologies:
🔹 Stream-aligned teams focused on business domains with real impact
🔹 A platform treated as a product, built to reduce cognitive load
🔹 Clear interaction modes: X-as-a-Service, Collaboration, Facilitation
🔹 A product-led governance model with usage-based metrics
💡 The outcome: fewer silos, better complexity management, and a Time-to-Market reduced by 3x, with no compromise on quality.
This is a powerful example of what happens when we build learning, autonomous organizations that structurally reflect their desired product architecture (yes, that’s Conway’s Law — in reverse! 😉).
In a world where speed and complexity are the new normal, redesigning our orgs may be a better bet than trying to “scale agile” with brute force.
Have you led or experienced such a transformation? Would love to hear your thoughts and lessons learned 💬👇
