Our Approach to Organization Development
At Organization Development Consultants, Inc. (ODC), we pursue organization development from a systems perspective. This means that we view organizations as dynamic entities comprised of identifiable component parts. When these parts are properly aligned and linked, an environment of high performance is created. That is the goal we pursue in our programs and activities with our clients.

To achieve this end, we believe that organizations must confront issues of (1) external adaptation having to do with the three C’s—Customers, Competition, and Change and (2) internal integration having to with the three P’s—Purpose, Partnership and Processes.

In helping our clients address the three C’s and the three P’s, we:

  • Analyze the strengths and developmental areas of the organization and its work units.

  • Partner with our clients to craft forward-looking business plans that specify actions and methods to be pursued at the organizational, team or work area, and individual levels.

  • Offer hands-on support in real-time fashion as the plans are implemented.

  • Varying levels of process consulting and support are offered, ranging from one-on-one coaching of key managers to team-based assistance as systemic improvements are pursued.
