How to use ‘Economies of Empowerment’ to get the benefits of both speed and scale

How can organizations move beyond the rigid trade-off between Economies of Speed and Economies of Scale?

Join us for an insightful talk with Matthew Skelton, co-author of Team Topologies and CEO/CTO at Conflux, as he challenges traditional organizational thinking at the Agile Yorkshire Meetup on 03rd of June 2026.

In this talk, Matthew shares insights from helping organizations apply principles from Team Topologies and Adapt Together™ to scale nimble value delivery via empowered teams and ‘Economies of Empowerment’.

Many organizations struggle to scale nimble ways of working as they grow, stifling innovation.

Using ‘Economies of Empowerment’ drives clarity of mission, purposeful boundaries for flow, continuous adaptation, and rapid innovation via cross-team learning.

Key takeaways

  • Operating effectively at scale and speed requires us to look beyond structures, frameworks, and processes

  • Focus on empowering teams to be effective stewards of long-lived services using principles from Team Topologies

  • Drive engagement, trust, and alignment via active knowledge diffusion and cross-team learning

  • Meet the needs of COO, CFO, and other ExCo roles with a clear narrative around both value delivery and financial performance

Join us at the Agile Yorkshire Meetup on Wed 03 June 2026 (06:00 PM - 08:30 PM) at Platform, Leeds, to explore how to scale nimble value delivery via empowered teams and ‘Economies of Empowerment’.
