How does OD differ from a single-change technique such as management training?
Explanation
Organization development (OD) together as a term means the ongoing systematic process which leads to better performance and sustainability of an organization as a whole.
A single change technique is a technique which is undertaken to bring about a particular change in the concerned field. An example of such technique is management training.
Organizational development differs from a single change technique in the following ways:
- OD covers a very broad aspect of change as compared to a single change technique which focusses on a particular change.
- OD impacts the organization as a whole whereas single change technique just implies on a particular area.
- OD is an ongoing process whereas a single change technique does not take place once the targeted change is achieved.
- A single change technique is a part of the overall OD process and is not same for the vice-versa case.
- Single change technique is focused mainly on an individual's performance. Whereas OD deals with different changes required by an organization to be up-to-date including the individual.
- Single change technique is less important for an organization's competitiveness as compared to OD.
