OpenSourceOD

The field of Organization Development continues to evolve, drawing upon a wide variety of philosophical, behavioral, sociological, and pedagogical traditions to systematically develop healthy organizational systems, structures, and learning opportunities that support engaging, adaptive, and effective workplaces. Now more than ever, the field must play a central role in helping organizations and society navigate unprecedented challenges, including COVID-19, racism, restructures, work-from-anywhere ecosystems, and the "Great Resignation, Awakening, and Reset." OpenSourceOD was created to ignite the spirit, reach, and impact of Organization Development through a free, member-driven space that boosts the field's ability to address pressing challenges to humanity and transform organizational performance in radically innovative and unobstructed ways. Our strategy is to stimulate and promote innovative and inclusive OD theories and practices, as well as a clearer understanding of the field's rapid evolution and diffusion into leadership and related professions, such as Human Resources, Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion, Talent Development, Organizational Effectiveness, and (yes, even) Management Consulting! We accomplish this through your active engagement with self-directed professional development tools that link to back-end research conducted by OD experts and Ph.D. students who in turn improve these tools and share helpful insights.
