Organization development in context

Egyptians left a mark of the civilization in the form of pyramids. pyramids are symbol of high integrity. Pyramids tells a story of time and built symmetrically in layers. Pyramids have been built over a period of long time and not easily destroyed.

Organizations development is a phenomenon which encompasses human potentials to be explored and directional in nature. Lets look at the pyramid again with help of a mirror, moving up from flat to top from concrete to transcendental and moving from flat to bottom reflects.

Organization development

OD is contextual again based on relevance. OD evolves on group and team purpose and objectives. OD Types likely hood are hierarchical ,bureaucratic, matrix, ,pyramidal, entrepreneurial, flat, team oriented etc. in nature. Size of the organization also determines the type of development.

Inspired by a spiral which is coincidentally a galaxy in our spatial system gives us views like --if one start from a point from outer end to reach at center, will reach from outside-in and if one starts from the center and circle outwards move than that will be inside-out thinking. So again its up to individuals, which way move. Traveling by we see stars and other objects binding each other with gravitational forces. Galaxy One of the many management stra...
