The Go-To Resource for Large-Scale Organizations to Be Agile Rather than asking, “How can we do agile at scale in our big complex organization?” a different and deeper question is, “How can we have the same simple structure that Scrum offers for the organization, and be agile at scale rather than do agile?” This profound insight is at the heart of LeSS (Large-Scale Scrum). In Large-Scale Scrum: More with LeSS, Craig Larman and Bas Vodde have distilled over a decade of experience in large-scale LeSS adoptions towards a simpler organization that delivers more flexibility with less complexity, more value with less waste, and more purpose with less prescription. Targeted to anyone involved in large-scale development, Large-Scale Scrum: More with LeSS, offers straight-to-the-point guides for how to be agile at scale, with LeSS.

#1 Best Seller in Management Science, Business & Strategic Management. (Amazon.com, Amazon.de, Amazon.nl, Amazon.fr, Amazon.pl, Amazon.se. Feb 2026). "This is a book you should always have in your back pocket " - Joris Verheij, Director Anti-Financial Crime Operations, ASN Bank. "Engaging from start to finish " - Saloni Seth-Watkins, Organization and Talent Strategy Consultant "If you care about building adaptive organizations and achieving growth without burning out your people, this book is worth your time." - Markus Tecza, Director Organization Strategy & Change What would you do if your CEO bluntly asked: "When do you think we can turn down new hires by turning up AI?" That message from the CEO turned the world upside down for the book's main character, Hanna, the HR Director of an established firm. Do you see this happening too: competitors are racing ahead, investors want more with less, and the leadership team expects a breakthrough? At first, Hanna thought it was a joke. The acceptance came when she decided to dig deeper and see what was happening in her organization. Through the lens of Org Topologies(TM), and with her leadership team, Hanna began to see what they had missed for years: an org design misfit, causing a constant need for expensive, but short-lived reorganizations. This book, written as a business novel with a woven 10X ORG theory, principles, elevating katas, and case studies, draws on the authors' decades of experience in product development, management, and consulting. 10X ORG invites leaders to move beyond quick fixes and shortcuts, and to deliberately redesign organizations so people can learn faster, take broader ownership, and stay relevant as work itself changes. It shows how, with a real strategy-structure fit in place, AI becomes a force multiplier-elevating human intelligence rather than replacing it. That shift, however, requires slow systems thinking. As W. Edwards Deming reminded us: "There is no instant pudding."
