Most change efforts fail—not because of resistance, but because of structure. Structure & Power reveals how the architecture of roles, rules, and routines silently shapes innovation, agility, and success. Culture matters, but structure decides who gets to act, who holds power, and which ideas survive. If you’ve ever watched a transformation stall, seen agility reduced to theater, or felt stuck in a system that rewards inertia over initiative, then this book will give you the language, tools, and leverage to challenge that system at its core. For product leaders, change agents, and systems thinkers, Structure & Power offers a clear-eyed, actionable guide to building lasting change by starting where it actually matters.
Everyone blames development for being slow. But what if the real bottleneck isn't your engineering team at all? After 25 years as an engineering manager and CTO, and 8 years coaching technology leaders through their biggest challenges, Stephan Schmidt has discovered an uncomfortable truth: you can squeeze out 10-20% by optimizing development, but you'll never reach the next level that way. The real lever? Decisions. Meetings. The six months an idea bounces around before anyone writes a line of code. This mini-book shows you how to measure and optimize the entire journey from idea to revenue—not just the coding part. You'll learn 10 practical rules to slash time to market, including how to build a decision culture that doesn't stall, why working in parallel actually slows you down, and how understanding MVP stages can free up development capacity. Stop blaming your developers. Start fixing what actually matters.
