This document presents information on organizational development. It discusses the historical development of organizational development from Lewin's work in the 1940s to a focus on systems thinking in the 1980s. It then outlines the typical process of an organizational development program, including problem identification, data collection, assigning workgroups to review data, planning change strategies, intervening through methods like training and consultation, and evaluation. Potential benefits are increased communication, shared goals, employee development, innovation, and reduced costs. Challenges include the time-consuming nature, costs, emphasis on groups, and difficulty evaluating programs. In conclusion, organizational development can enable changes that benefit organizations.
