Organization Development Basics is a primer on the broad field of organization development and offers just the right amount of information to create an understanding of the tools, practices, and core skills of the OD practitioner. It is a useful tool for trainers and training managers wishing to add new knowledge and capabilities to their resume and is a solid resource for beginning OD professionals and human resources professionals. Like all of the books in the Training Basics series, you will find learning guideposts along the way including 'Basic Rules', 'Noted', and 'Think about This' sidebars that enable readers to scan the book and pick out and apply concepts immediately. In addition, each chapter ends with an interactive section called 'Getting It Done' that guides readers in direct application of new skills.
