The Organization Development Book

In today's dynamic business environment, leaders need insights, tools, skills, and solutions to build and sustain great organizations with a competitive advantage. While there are many fields and practice areas that can offer these, Organization Development (OD) continues to be an all-encompassing discipline that offers holistic, integrated, results oriented, and comprehensive solutions to achieve business success. Organization Development is focused on helping leaders build and sustain great businesses that are both effective and healthy by harmonizing the hard and soft elements in the organization. This is accomplished through a partnership between the leadership team and the OD practitioner, who collaborate to engage all the stakeholders using a process of inquiry. OD helps leaders transform organizations not only from good to great but also from great to extraordinary by providing everything required to accomplish this goal.
The Organization Development Book provides 50 OD models that help leaders, consultants, and coaches build great organizations. These are effective and time-tested OD models that help to approach organizations from different perspectives. Models function as an effective tool to bring all the stakeholders together on the same page to understand and contribute. There is no single model that can bring together all the intricate aspects of an organization, and it is up to the OD practitioners to use any of these models or build a model to suit the specific need. These 50 OD Models can help OD practitioners increase their knowledge, be a quick reference to understand the relevant model, be a starting point to go deeper into any specific model and be a resource book for OD programs. Readers are encouraged to access the publications by the authors of the relevant models using the references provided in the book to further their knowledge.
