Organisation Development (OD) is rooted in the deep connection between the best business processes and structures and supporting the development of the people working within them. It’s about creating great organisations and high performing cultures. Module 1, Demystifying OD, focuses on organisation development as a discipline and the role of an OD Practitioner within an organisation.
