Why get an Organization Development Certification?
Organization Development (OD) often sits within the field of Human Resource Management and for good reason. Its focus is on the organization development process through people. Very often organizations invest heavily in transformational change programs or change interventions that fail to deliver performance in a sustainable way. Continuous improvement in OD changes from the perspective that every part of an organization is integral to a system that relies on and impacts other elements of the internal and external environment in which the organization operates.
Goals of Organization Development
Organization Development (OD) helps organizations deliver sustainable performance improvement through people. Those who practice OD usually have a strong humanistic and democratic approach to organizational change. People and collaboration are key features of any organization development intervention.
