What is Organization Development?

Organization Development (OD) refers to the disciplinary field of scholars and practitioners who work collaboratively with organizations and communities to develop their system-wide capacity for effectiveness and vitality. OD is grounded in the organizational and social sciences, and is guided by strong values that are humanistic, organization-wide, inquiry-based and collaborative, developmental-focused, systems-oriented, and research- and evidence-informed.

In an ever-changing, increasingly complex and diverse world, all organizations, communities, and individuals are adaptable, resilient, and thriving. People create and lead healthy, meaningful lives through effective, sustainable human and organizational systems. Effective leaders boldly and intentionally foster inclusive environments in which people connect with one another, see themselves and their organizations in new ways, and co-create their shared future.

There are groups of practitioners all over the world learning from each other, growing, and seeking to further define OD as the field changes with the world around us. In particular, the OD Gathering and the national Organization Development Network are doing deep work in this area. For more reading on this, click on their links!
