ORGANISATIONAL DEVELOPMENT
OD is about moving the organisation on by taking deliberate, planned steps to create an environment that will enable staff to understand and deliver the organisations objectives.
OD involves both 'hard' and 'soft' issues. The 'hard' issues for OD are strategies and policies, structures and systems. The 'softer' issues in the main are developing appropriate skills, behaviours and attitudes, culture and a style of leadership that will enable the organisation to achieve optimum performance. Both the 'harder' and 'softer' issues of OD need to be addressed to avoid conflict between goals and needs.

TRANSFORMATION STRATEGY Content
People
Process
All three areas must be integrated into one unified transformation effort that moves an organization from where it is today to where it chooses to be in the future.
Organizations that take a piecemeal approach and separate their organizational and technical changes (content) from their human and cultural changes (people) fail dramatically
