Organization Development goes beyond the organizational level to look at the application of OD on community, national, regional, and global levels.

  organizational development books: Organizational Development IntroBooks, 2019-01-14 Think of any organization to which you belong. There are many, such as the company that hired you or a volunteer group or even an anon-governmental organization. Many other organizations, such as a state government or hospital, have a direct, or indirect, effect on your functioning. Even a bank has some influence on you. By definition, even your family and friends form an organization. Now, let's talk about all those organizations you were associated with in the past but now have left because of an issue. It could be either due to your dissatisfaction, or you weren't happy there, or maybe you wanted to contribute more and take more participation but didn't have the opportunity to do so. You might have also left a company because you weren't getting recognized for your efforts, or no one appreciated your work. Sometimes, even a change in the role of responsibilities makes you leave a company. Some people disassociate themselves from an organization when they do not feel in control of their work or can't figure an acceptable path for career development. Now, all these problems can be solved if an organization puts the required amount of resources in organizational development. Organizational development is actually inter-disciplinary and involves business, industry, psychology as well as sociology. Even communications, human resources, and management form a part of organizational development.

  organizational development books: Organisational Change Dianne Waddell, Andrew Creed, Thomas G. Cummings, Christopher G. Worley, 2016-08-31 Change Management is a crucial process for gaining the competitive advantage that is the goal of many organisations.

Comprising 12 chapters in 6 parts, the text opens with an explanation of the environment of change faced by organisations today.

With the field of organisational change continuing to evolve, especially in an international context, future directions of change management are also discussed. Finally, to emphasise the relationship between theory to practice, Organisational Change: Development and Transformation 6e provides 10 local and international case studies and a suite of online cases supported by a case matrix. Case studies, exercises and support material present the challenges of change management in a real-life manner - examining issues from a variety of viewpoints.

  organizational development books: Bottom-line Organization Development Merrill C. Anderson, 2003 Organization development practitioners have, for over half a century, engaged with organizations to help them grow and thrive. The artful application of Organization Development (OD) has helped business leaders articulate vision, rethink business processes, create more fluid organization structures and better utilize people's talents. While business leaders and OD practitioners intuitively believe that OD provides valuable results, rigorous measurement of the value delivered has long eluded many OD practitioners. 'Bottom-Line Organization Development' provides powerful tools to capture and measure the financial return on investment (ROI) of OD projects to the business. Given the increasing competition for budget and resources within organizations and the requirements of demonstrating tangible results, the need for such OD measurement tools is very high. But in addition to proving the value of OD projects, integrating evaluation into the change management process itself can actually increase the value of the change initiative because it opens up new ways of capturing and increasing the value of change initiatives. In other words, there is an ROI to ROI. Merrill Anderson calls this new way of approaching OD strategic change valuation. The book explains the five steps in the OD value process - diagnosis, design, deployment, evaluation and reflection. In addition, three case studies take readers through the process of applying bottom-line OD to three types of popular strategic change initiatives: executive coaching, organization capability, and knowledge management. Readers will gain a holistic perspective of how to make the seemingly intangible benefits of these initiatives tangible.
  organizational development books: ReOrg Stephen Heidari-Robinson, Suzanne Heywood, 2016-10-25 A Practical Guide in Five Steps Most executives will lead or be a part of a reorganization effort (a reorg) at some point in their careers. And with good reason—reorgs are one of the best ways for companies to unlock latent value, especially in a changing business environment. But everyone hates them. No other management practice creates more anxiety and fear among employees or does more to distract them from their day-to-day jobs. As a result, reorgs can be incredibly expensive in terms of senior-management time and attention, and most of them fail on multiple dimensions. It’s no wonder companies treat a reorg as a mysterious process and outsource it to people who don’t understand the business. It doesn’t have to be this way. Stephen Heidari-Robinson and Suzanne Heywood, former leaders in McKinsey’s Organization Practice, present a practical guide for successfully planning and implementing a reorg in five steps—demystifying and accelerating the process at the same time. Based on their twenty-five years of combined experience managing reorgs and on McKinsey research with over 2,500 executives involved in them, the authors distill what they and their McKinsey colleagues have been practicing as an “art” into a “science” that executives can replicate—in companies or business units large or small. It isn’t rocket science and it isn’t bogged down by a lot of organizational theory: the five steps give people a simple, logical process to follow, making it easier for everyone—both the leaders and the employees who ultimately determine a reorg’s success or failure—to commit themselves to and succeed in the new organization.
