What is Organizational Development?

Organizational Development is a process that a college, unit, or department might deliberately undergo in order to improve its effectiveness and performance. Typically, the leader of the group and the group members go through several steps together:

diagnosing needs and problems
defining the group's goals and objectives
making plans to achieve articulated goals, and
developing and implementing group problem-solving and decision-making strategies

Organizational Development Services can help facilitate these steps by providing senior consultants and staff to help the unit or department work through organizational and human resource  issues.
