TIME

Networking lunch to follow
FORMAT
Closed Roundtable
Maximum 12 seats
The pressure on enterprise operations has changed. The conversation needs to catch up.
Regulatory obligations are tightening. AI is shifting what teams can do and how they’re structured. Most organisations are still running on operating models designed for a different decade.
This roundtable brings together leaders from financial services, energy, and broader enterprise to examine where their organisations are genuinely stuck, and what peers are doing about it. The discussion is business-led and practitioner-level. There are no presentations, no case studies, and no pitch decks in the room.
Systemology and Atlassian are co-hosting this event as part of an ongoing commitment to helping enterprise leaders work through the real complexity of operational transformation.

Four questions shaping the agenda
T H R E A D 0 1
“When your operating model runs at the speed of regulation, how do you keep the business moving without losing control of the things that matter?”
T H R E A D 0 2
“AI is changing how work happens inside your organisation. What does that mean for how you structure teams and govern decisions?”
T H R E A D 0 3
“Where does your organisation still lose meaningful time to coordination rather than capability, and how are you addressing it?”
T H R E A D 0 4
“What does a single version of the truth actually look like inside your organisation, and who owns it when things break down?”
