Getting into Organisation Development is rarely a straightforward path. Are you curious about going into Organisation Development? Are you just at the beginning of your career, or are you an HR practitioner who would like to take on more OD responsibilities? Maybe you’d like to go into OD consulting?
OD is an exciting and varied field. Every person’s journey into Organisation Development is different and recent research shows that thousands of Organisation Development careers exist, but one size does NOT fit all.
We have curated a collection of stories from a wide variety of OD practitioners. Some are in the early stages of their journey, others have been working in the field of OD for many years. Some are internal practitioners and others are working as external OD consultants.
These stories explore how they got started in OD, what a day in their OD life looks like and what courses they’ve studied all so that others can learn from their experience.
So, whether you’re just at the beginning of your OD journey, you’ve already taken your first step or you’re just curious to know more, we hope you’ll find this content enlightening and useful.
