?To gain the benefits of Business Agility we need to improve the entire ecosystem, not just one part of the system. This is what we call Elevating an Ecosystem.

Elevating Structures? are the guides (tools, templates, workshops, patterns, examples) developed and collected by Org Topologies? that stimulate organizational design to move toward higher-level archetypes (B2-C3 levels) as per Org Topologies? Mapping.
Realizing these guides will promote systemic changes rather than local optimizations across the value-creating part of your organization. This approach helps organizations become more adaptable, innovative, and resilient.
