You’re scaling fast, but something’s breaking. Decisions fragment across teams. Your best people are burning out. You’re spending 60% of your time on “work about work,” and it’s costing you millions.

The problem isn’t your people. It’s how they work together.

Introducing The Organizational Systems Method™ Playbook, the same proven methodology I use with Fortune 500 executives, founders, and operators packaged for leaders ready to diagnose and fix organizational friction on their own.

This is the practitioner-level system built from scaling organizations from 30 to 12,000+ people at Expedia Group, Capital One, Chase, and Microsoft. It’s not theory. It’s the same methodology that delivered 35% cost savings, 17% reduction in regrettable attrition, increased bookings by 35% quarter over quarter, and reclaimed millions in wasted time.

The Organizational Systems Method™ in full detail:

  • The Organizational X-Ray™ Framework: Assess across 12 Qualities of Effective Organizations

  • Symptom Cluster Diagnostics: Identify if your organization is Scattered, Siloed, Reactive, Overloaded, or Stagnant

  • The Organizational Flow Map™: Reveal how work actually moves through your organization

  • Pattern Recognition Playbook: Match what you find to proven solutions with strategic sequencing

  • Root Cause Analysis Tools: Understand why friction exists and what’s causing it

Practitioner-Level Expertise, Not Consulting Theory

I didn’t advise on organizational design from a PowerPoint deck. I built it, broke it, fixed it, and scaled it from the inside at Fortune 100 companies.

What Makes This Different

Systems-Focused, Not Activity-Focused

Traditional consultants focus on what teams produce. The Organizational Systems Method™ focuses on organizational systems and how teams work together to produce it.

ROI You Can Measure

Organizational friction typically costs $2.85M to $10M annually. Conservative Year 1 returns from applying this methodology:

  • 15 to 25% reduction in “work about work”: $125K to $700K
  • 1 to 2 executive retentions: $150K to $600K
  • 20 to 30% faster execution velocity: $500K to $2M

Your investment: $1,997 or $2,997

Potential Year 1 return: $775K to $3.3M

This playbook is designed for leaders who:

  • Run organizations of 50 to 5,000+ people experiencing growing pains

  • Spend 60% or more of time managing escalations instead of strategic work

  • See talented people burning out from coordination overhead

  • Watch strategy fragment as it cascades through the organization

  • Want practitioner-level expertise without $500K consulting engagements

  • Are ready to do the work of diagnosing and designing better systems

After working through The Organizational Systems Method™ Playbook, you’ll be able to:

Enable faster decisions and remove bottlenecks

Build your transformation roadmap with strategic sequencing

Understand root causes, not just symptoms

See what’s invisible: diagnose exactly where time leaks, where decisions fragment, and where your best people burn out

Reclaim 20 to 30% of wasted time systematically

Create sustainable excellence that sticks

Design systems that scale with your organization

From Kristin Skinner

I’ve spent 20+ years inside Fortune 100 companies building, scaling, and fixing organizational systems. I co-authored Org Design for Design Orgs, founded the DesignOps Summit, lead Masterclasses on Organizational Design and Operating Systems, and developed The Organizational Systems Method™ after seeing the same friction patterns cost millions across industries.

This playbook is everything I wish I’d had when I was scaling teams from 30 to 12,000+ people. No fluff. No theory. Just the practitioner-level methodology that delivers measurable results.

I believe every leader deserves access to the same frameworks Fortune 500 executives pay $50K+ for. This is that access.

Stop reacting, start designing. I bring systems expertise. You achieve measurable results.

- Kristin

Traditional consulting firms diagnose from outside and hand you a strategy deck. This playbook gives you the complete methodology to diagnose AND fix organizational friction yourself. Practitioner-level expertise at 1 to 5% of consulting firm costs.

How is this different from traditional consulting?

No. The playbook is designed for executives and senior leaders who understand their business but want a systematic way to diagnose and fix how teams work together.

Do I need to be an organizational design expert?

Quick wins in 30 days (5 to 10% time reclaimed). Significant transformation in 90 to 180 days (20 to 30% reduction in “work about work”). Sustainable excellence in 9 to 12 months.

How long does it take to see results?

The methodology scales from 50 to 5,000+ people. Works for high-growth startups hitting scaling friction or Fortune 500 enterprises with siloed divisions.

What size organization is this designed for?

Digital PDF (75+ pages) with all templates and worksheets as editable documents. Instant access upon purchase. Lifetime access to updates.

What format is the playbook delivered in?

The playbook is licensed for use by you and your immediate team (up to 10 leaders). For organization-wide implementation, contact me about enterprise licensing.

Can I share this with my team?

Most organizations see 5-10x ROI in Year 1. Organizational friction typically costs $2.85M-$10M annually. Conservative Year 1 returns: 15-25% reduction in "work about work" ($125K-$700K), 1-2 executive retentions ($150K-$600K), 20-30% faster execution ($500K-$2M). Real example: Fortune 500 financial services invested $185K, delivered $2.74M in measured value, 14.8x ROI in 18 months.
