Due to the advancements in information and communication technology, the emphasis on research and development, an emerging consciousness of. environmental responsibility, the reality of changing lifestyles, and an aging population, industries and business entities today are concomitantly realigning their vision, goals and strategies. Business survival and competition have become prosaic bywords of the times. The challenge for differentiation and innovation are more imperative today than before. Effective policies are being implemented, proactive plans are being designed, and cutting-edge approaches are being conceptualized. Focus is deliberately concentrated on corporate survival at the least, and on organizational competitiveness, business leadership, and industry monopoly at best. As a response to this global reality, we decided to come up with this book entitled, "Organization Development". This book is essentially a product of the introspective analysis of facts and realities existing in the corporate milieu, as influenced by educational, business and corporate orientations including teaching experiences, readings, and interactions with students, professionals and managers. It also presents a clear and simple approach to organization development from a practical perspective. In addition, this book walks the global, local and corporate environments. It discusses the realities and principles of organizational change and its implications within the organization. It describes the process of implementing organizational change and the significant role that consultants/practitioners play in addressing the issues and concerns emanating from this change. Furthermore, the book presents the different strategies that can be adopted by organizations: relationship strategies, quality and productivity strategies, and organizational strategies"-- Preface of the book ER -
