A critical task for organization development is to accurately diagnose the cross currents of information that exists within every organization.
In this course, you will work individually, in small groups and as a large group, to diagnose organizations in an impactful way. You will explore organizations as open systems, use organizational diagnostic models, and learn to balance the roles of diagnostician and being a practitioner of organization development. Though it is not required, it would be helpful if participants have taken Theory and Practice in OD (offered as a course through NTL Institute).
