What is an Organizational Development (OD) Project?

Organizational development (OD) is an evidence-based and science-based approach to enable the organization to have the right structures, processes, and resources available for delivering on the business strategy and operational requirements.

An OD project is structured according to a systemic process of engagement that usually involves a number of steps, such as contracting, diagnosing, designing, intervening, measuring, and improving. 

Overall, organizational development is a vast interdisciplinary field involving many subjects, including HRM. Here is a brief overview of how OD works in practice, including several examples of OD projects.
