Organizational development is a process of planned efforts to manage change as means of enhancing the organization’s effectiveness. Organizational development starts with an assessment of the organization and an establishment of its current and desired future states. The clarification of the desired future states in turn leads to the definition of new strategies. Organizational development then concludes with the identification and putting in place of the process, the structures, systems, procedures and leadership that are needed to support new strategies. In other words, OD is about organizations understanding themselves relative to their environment, clarifying their future plans and developing the necessary capacities to achieve their objectives. For at the heart of ministry effectiveness is an organization that is opportunity driven and responsive to its socioeconomic environment.
