the ABC of Leadership and Organisation Development

OD is about improving your organisation's overall effectiveness by carefully balancing the intricacies of people, process & performances.  In practice, as every company is different, the work required will be different.  Every individual has different stories and every company as a collective of individuals have a collective story that makes it culture.  Where it works, we celebrate, where it doesn't we calibrate and change to become more effective.   

In summary,    

• OD is strategic, analytic and personal
• OD involves working with individuals, groups and data
• OD is informed by behavioural science knowledge & complexity science which helps us to understand how individuals and organisations really work 

At its heart, organisation development is about navigating changes to improve effectiveness by working in partnership across a whole system,

where change is considered as any disruption of a repeated pattern of thinking, feeling or behaviour.
