OD primarily is about streamlining performance and it describes the process model for strategic change. It's focus is on developing the organisation, rather than to develop the staff.
Quotes from Wikipedia : "it is worth understanding what OD is not. It is not training, personal development, team development or team building, human-resource developement, learning and development or a part of HR - although it is often mistakenly understood as some or all of these."
Google actually hires OD consultants to assess, redesign and evaluate work process, need for managing strategic change and input of organizational development.
The main objective is to promote organizational readiness to meet changes.
Management must be willing to go below the water line, sacrificing short term gain to enhance the long term gain and verifying implementations.
As for employees, the company must receive support of mindset shift from the employees, which I am referring to the attitude towards the organisation changes.
Strategic changes must be done in phases and not all at once.
Evaluate -> review -> adaptation
Hopefully, in the coming months, the things I will be doing, reflect what I wrote above..
Till then..
