This is a book about organization development (OD), a process that applies a broad range of behavioral science knowledge and practices to help organizations build their capacity to change and to achieve greater effectiveness, including increased financial performance, customer satisfaction, and organization member engagement. Organization development differs from other planned change efforts, such as project management or innovation, because the focus is on building the organization's ability to assess its current functioning and to achieve its goals. Moreover, OD is oriented to improving the total system, the organization and its parts in the context of the larger environment that affects them.
