Organizational Development

Thomas Watson of IBM once said “Whenever an organization or individual believes success has been achieved, progress stops.” Progress stops because change is inevitable and constant, and the most successful organizations are those that adapt to change through a process of continuous improvement, both at the organizational and individual contributor levels.

The process of continuous improvement in an organization typically starts with strategic planning. Not a one-time event, strategic planning at its best is an ongoing process of setting goals, establishing metrics to track progress, and the continuous evaluation of results and refinement of plans. Strategic planning builds accountability for results and helps develop teamwork in an organization.

A natural outgrowth of strategic planning is the identification of organizational needs, including the need to develop key employees. Such needs might arise in the context of succession planning, in the context of planned growth, or as a result of a desire to increase productivity or to improve customer service.
